Dubai, UAE, August 13TH, 2012

International Expo Consults (IEC), a division of UAE's multi-faceted business conglomerate - Falak Holding, stated that Italy based 'FABBRI Group' will showcase several world class amusement rides at DEAL 2013. The 19th edition of the show will be held between, April 23rd - 25th next year at the Dubai World Trade Centre. DEAL is the Middle East's annual focal point for all stakeholders in the amusement and related industries looking for a successful entry or greater growth in the region's markets.  IEC is aiming to propel the region's theme parks industry through its 'Dubai Entertainment Amusement and Leisure' show (DEAL) 2013 and thereby enabling them to capture the potential of this billion dollar industry. Over 250 firms from across 30 countries exhibited, while more than 7,000 visitors are expected to attend the show.  FABBRI Group designs and manufactures amusement rides for leisure areas and parks. They also provide customized attractions for theme parks with themed concepts. Full range of spectacular, major, family, children, kiddie and interactive products: water rides, drop towers, dark rides, coasters and giant wheels. 

FABBRI Group is clearly linked to that of "Bergantino", a village in the province of Rovigo (north-east Italy) commonly known as "The village of the ride", as many of its inhabitants have dedicated their professional careers to the production of expertly handcrafted amusement rides since just after World War II.

In the 80's the target became the world market. FABBRI's continuing success today is marked by advanced technology, quality, concern for safety, and creative imagination, features that have made FABBRI a leader in the manufacture of attractions for Parks and Travelling Showmen.

The success of the Company with some of the most popular rides like the Telecombat, Tagadà, Pirate Ship, Wheels, and Flying Carpet further increased in 1986 with the creation of the Kamikaze ride. Fabbri sold over 170 units in 14 years. In the more recent years other rides like the Evolution, the Mega Drop, and the Booster have strengthened the FABBRI Group history.

Rather than concentrating production in only one facility, the FABBRI family founded several affiliated companies, all located in nearby towns, each specialising in its own type of ride and still paying careful attention to quality and cost controls which are closely monitored at each factory.

Through FABBRI's sales Company, the FABBRI Group, the rides are exported not just to Europe but all over the world, from the Far East to Australia, from the USA to Central and South America. All of the amusement industries needs from Kiddie rides, Family rides, Major rides, Extreme rides and Roller Coasters are available through the FABBRI Group.

 Mr. Abdul Rahman Falaknaz; Chairman of IEC stated that, "We are delighted to have the FABBRI Group on board for DEAL 2013. Contracts worth AED 800 million were signed at DEAL 2012 indicating renewed confidence in the region's leisure sector. DEAL is the only platform in the Middle East for exhibitors in these industries to connect with buyers, for buyers to see and test the latest products and services, and for professionals to share best practice and make new contacts."  

"For an exhibitor, this is the best opportunity of the year to showcase their quality equipments and services to thousands of potential buyers at a single venue. Visitors can attend dedicated seminars, see technology at its innovative best, network with industry peers, and develop profitable business relationships," concluded Falaknaz.
