Dubai Flower Centre looks set to expand its operations into the lucrative Ukrainian market, following its successful participation at Flowers and Hortech 2007 in Kiev.
"The Flowers and Hortech exhibition enabled DFC to showcase our concept as a one-stop shop for the Ukrainian horticulture market," said DFC marketing director Ibrahim Ahli. "We had a series of high-profile meetings with the Flower Council of Ukraine, who showed a genuine interest in cooperation with DFC and the use of our centre as a regional hub to ship horticultural produce from countries of production, such as Africa and South America."
He added: "The Ukrainian horticulture sector is developing rapidly and is offering solid opportunities for suppliers of professional horticultural products and technology. It is considered a consumption market and the representatives from the Flower Council of Ukraine were particularly interested in DFC's sealed humidity and temperature control system, as well as our excellent transport network and close proximity to Dubai International Airport."
Ahli also mentioned that DFC expects to conduct further discussions with its counterparts in Ukraine on a wide range of horticultural business opportunities over the next few months.
