CPHI Middle East 2026 Stand in Riyadh: your turnkey stand builder
Santé
International
Dedicated to pharmaceutical manufacturing, CPHI Middle East supports the Middle East's ambition to produce more medicines locally. Next edition: December 14 to 16, 2026, at the Riyadh Exhibition and Convention Center, in Malham.
CPHI Middle East: pharma, manufacturing and supply chain
Active ingredients, excipients, contract manufacturing, production machinery, packaging, pharmaceutical logistics: the show covers the entire drug chain. Organized by Informa Markets, it welcomed more than 30,000 visitors in 2024 and expects more than 1,000 exhibitors in 2026. Saudi Arabia is making pharmaceutical localization a strategic focus: factory projects and partnerships are forged there.
Malham, Riyadh's new exhibition hub
The Riyadh Exhibition and Convention Center, built in Malham, offers huge, modern halls with great architectural freedom. The distance from the city center requires organizing transport for teams and visitors. Mid-December offers mild temperatures, but logistics remain demanding: customs clearance, local coordination, technical regulations. A vertical landmark, visible from afar, helps your appointments find you.
Industrial pharma stand: what we offer
Industrial players are looking for long-term partners. We design stands in three stages: identity facade, space to present capabilities, comfortable meeting lounges in keeping with regional hospitality customs. See our page health and pharma stands and our tailor-made stands, manufactured in France.
