Why the Eastern Province

The organizer points to Saudi Arabia's position as the Gulf's largest plastics and petrochemicals producer, holding more than two-thirds of GCC petrochemical capacity, as the reason to meet the market in Dammam.

Co-located shows

Gulf 4P runs alongside CIDEX and Mach & Tools Saudi, giving visitors access to construction and industrial machinery exhibitions at the same venue.
