DUBAL and EMAL promote products, target market share growth at prestigious industry event United Arab Emirates: Senior industry representatives gathered in New York, USA, from 11 to 13 June this year for the 2nd Annual Aluminium Summit, hosted by leading metals publication, American Metal Market.
Dubai Aluminium (DUBAL) and Emirates Aluminium (EMAL) leveraged the opportunity to reach this prestigious audience by participating jointly in the exhibition component held alongside the summit.
The combined DUBAL-EMAL exhibition stand showcased the two companies, and their product portfolios. DUBAL's Marketing and Sales team is responsible for marketing the metal produced by EMAL. This amounted to 288,568 metric tonnes of cast aluminium in 2010, and 749,000 metric tonnes in 2011; in addition to DUBAL's own sales, which exceeded one million tonnes in both years. The American market is particularly important to the UAE smelters: approximately 123,900 metric tonnes of DUBAL's 2011 production was shipped to North America, as was some 119,160 metric tonnes of that produced by EMAL - i.e. 243,060 metric tonnes in total, representing 13.6% of the two companies' combined production.
"We participated in the inaugural Annual Aluminium Summit in 2011," comments Walid Al Attar (Executive Vice President Marketing & Sales at DUBAL and Vice President Marketing & Sale at EMAL). "The participation of DUBAL and EMAL at the 2nd Annual Aluminium Summit reflects our continued confidence in the potential growth within this market going forward - a sentiment that is echoed in efforts already invested to strengthen our existing marketing and sales offices in the USA."
