Alba's role as a strategic partner representing the aluminium sector at the Gulf Industry Fair 2012 underscores the company's commitment to support initiatives that showcase Bahrain's aluminium sector as well as highlight Bahrain's attractiveness as an investor-friendly destination.
The aluminium sector not only includes aluminium production as represented by Alba but also provides opportunities for downstream companies to promote their products and services such as accessories and fittings, bars, billets, cables, ceiling and wall panels, coated coils, automobile parts, extrusion profiles, foils, grills, pastes, posers, rods, slugs, tubes, wheels, windows, floors and kitchens.
Present at the opening day of the trade event was Alba chairman Mahmood Al Kooheji, chief executive Laurent Schmitt, chief supply chain officer and acting chief operating officer Isa Al Ansari, chief marketing officer Jean Baptiste Lucas, Mena region manager Aziz Al Daylami, investor and public relations manager Eline Hilal, and other officials.
"Alba's pioneering role as the first aluminium smelter in the Middle East and its status as one of the largest smelters in the world provided the right platform for the company to be the strategic partner representing the aluminium sector at the Gulf Industry Fair 2012," Mr Schmitt said.
"In the 40 years since the company commenced operations in 1971, Alba has been instrumental in transforming the local aluminium industry into a global powerhouse.
"We are proud to be associated with the Gulf Industry Fair 2012 and recognise its importance in showcasing Bahrain's attractiveness to international investors," he said.
"We look forward to meeting peers in the industry, networking with associates, pursuing business leads and learning of new technologies and innovations," he added.
Gulf Industry Fair 2012 will be covering the key industrial segments like aluminium, machine tools, industrial equipment, automation, steel, energy, logistics and manufacturing.
It will also provide a unique opportunity for the operators of industrial areas, ports and free zones to meet an interested market of decision makers in the manufacturing and distribution sectors.
