(MENAFN- Gulf Times) Omani Products Exhibition (OPEX) begins today at Doha Exhibition and Convention Center (DECC) under the sponsorship of Qatar Chamber, Oman's Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Oman Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Oman's Public Establishment for Industrial Estates (PEIE) and Oman's Public Authority for Investment Promotion and Export Development (Ithraa).
The Qatari-Omani Joint Business Council will convene on the sidelines of the exhibition for talks on means of promoting trade co-operation between the two brotherly countries and discussing more available opportunities as well as the possibility of establishing joint ventures.
Qatar Chamber Vice Chairman Mohamed bin Ahmed bin Tawar al-Kuwari said the joint business council will focus on developing co-operation between Qatari and Omani businessmen and following up on the outcomes of the Qatari-Omani forum that was held in Muscat in June and saw the two sides agree on boosting trade and investment co-operation between businessmen from both sides.
He stressed the Chamber's support for mutual co-operation and enhancing commercial and economic ties with the Omani side, adding that it looks forward to more co-operation at the levels of investment and business, calling on Qatari and Omani business owners and investors to look into available investment opportunities in both countries and work on creating more projects that serve both economies.
He added that the Qatari commercial delegation's visit to Muscat in June led several Omani firms to come to Doha for investment in Qatar, noting that the agreement that was signed in Muscat between the two chambers of commerce at that time paved the way for enhancing partnerships between the two sides.
OPEX is one of the largest Omani exhibitions in the last seven years and aims to introduce the major Omani industries and displaying products in many fields.
The exhibition will show agricultural foodstuffs, building materials, industrial commodities, furniture, electric and electronic materials, health and medical products, textiles, leather products, fertilisers, cosmetics, plastics, industrial equipment, oil industry's equipment and tools, and primary and petrochemical materials.
