17th BUILDEXPO KENYA 2014

Kenya, Nairobi - 2nd to 4th May 2014
Kenya is under rapid development in its infrastructure, urbanization, economic zone, industrial parks, commercial and residential buildings and tourism resorts. It is estimated that Kenya's infrastructure industry value and construction industry value will double from 2010-2015. The demand for building construction materials and machinery has witnessed a precipitous rise.
The only show with the widest range of fascinating technologies in the sectors for construction machinery, building-material machines, mining machines, construction vehicles and construction equipment, the 17th edition of Buildexpo Africa is scheduled to be held in May 2014.
Buildexpo Africa is the only show which has been catering to the demand of not only the Kenyan market, but the entire East African region from the last 15 years.
Spread over three days, the mega event is the ideal forum for the international players in the industry to showcase products and services to the ripe African market. Trade visitors from all over East & Central African countries are being invited directly and in collaboration with several regional trade bodies in Kenya, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Uganda, Somalia, Mozambique & Congo. Though Kenya by itself is one of the biggest markets in Africa, major emphasis is being laid upon attracting traders and importers from neighbouring countries.

Fact of the week
Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
