Labelexpo Global Series has announced the launch of Gulf Print & Pack in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, taking place from January 21-23, 2025, at the Riyadh Front Exhibition Conference Center (RFECC).
The new show builds on the success of the established Dubai-based exhibition Gulf Print & Pack and showcases the latest in commercial and package printing technology alongside packaging equipment and materials in the country.
With this, Gulf Print & Pack will cement its position annually in the Middle East region comprising of two events, Gulf Print & Pack 2025 in Riyadh to service the burgeoning Kingdom of Saudi Arabia market and Gulf Print & Pack 2026 in Dubai for the GCC market.
The announcement of the event in Riyadh coincides with an investment boom across the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, in line with the country’s Vision 2030 initiative, which emphasizes sustainable growth across a wide range of industry sectors.
This is expected to create major business opportunities for commercial printers and label and packaging converters, as well as drive demand for automated packaging systems and sustainable packaging materials.
The Saudi plastics packaging market, for example, is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 6.6% and reach $20.52 billion by 2030, while the value of the paper and paperboard packaging market is expected to reach $5.87 billion by 2028.
Jade Grace, managing director, Labelexpo Global Series, comments, “We are launching Gulf Print & Pack in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia just as the Kingdom scales up its plans to boost industrialisation by adopting advanced and sustainable technologies all of which will be showcased at the show. This will require major investment by PSPs, commercial and packaging printers and specifiers of automated packaging machinery and eco-friendly materials.”
Barry Killengrey, event director, Gulf Print & Pack, says “We are excited to extend the Gulf Print & Pack series to Riyadh, where a vibrant consumer market is driving adoption of new digital technologies and packaging formats across the FMCG market. We see a huge potential for growth for all sectors of the print and packaging business supporting the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s development goals.”
Osamu Miyauchi, managing director of Konica Minolta Business Solutions Middle East, adds, "We are eager to participate in Gulf Print & Pack 2025 in Riyadh because it is a premier event for the industry in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, offering insights into cutting-edge technologies, and a chance to showcase our innovations. Engaging with industry leaders in the Kingdom and potential clients will significantly boost our business’s growth and visibility."
