DTCM promoting Dubai at Moscow trade fair

DUBAI - The Dubai Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing (DTCM), with 53 co-participants, is taking part in the ninth edition of International Travel Trade Fair 'Otdykh-Leisure 2003' in Moscow. The trade fair ends today.

The department is participating in the exhibition for the sixth consecutive year, which is focusing on travel trade visitors.

DTCM Manager (Overseas Promotions), Khalifa Buamaim, called the exhibition an excellent platform to exhibit and highlight Dubai's amenities and services. "We regard Russia as an important market and have been participating in and organising numerous events to cultivate our resources in this market," said Mr Buamaim.

He said that Dubai's state-of-the art facilities and quality services with an ethnic touch have always been highly regarded by Russian travel trade visitors. "To maximise visibility and attract trade visitors, the DTCM's stand at the exhibition will incorporate traditional design concepts as well as modern facilities. We will endeavour to consolidate relationships and have carried out an intensive publicity campaign to ensure that the participating Dubai companies receive a good flow of visitors," added Mr Buamaim. He recently chaired the pre-fair meeting of Otdykh-Leisure 2002 at the department's Head Office. Last year, there were about 720 companies from 54 countries, participating in the exhibition. "This event will give us an opportunity to interact with travel trade visitors from Russia as well as from other parts of the world."
