The Maldives
National Association of Construction Industry along with Maldives Exhibition
& Conference Services Pvt Ltd are proud to present Buildex Maldives 2019,
to be held on the 22nd, 23rd & 24th of August 2019 in Malé.
The
Exhibition has been setup to cater to the construction boom in the Maldives.
Major projects such as the reclamation and development of Hulumale,
construction and refurbishment of Island Resorts and the growing population in
the Capital City contribute towards the exponential growth in the Maldivian
Construction Industry.
Construction
is one of the most important sectors in the country, it has witnessed
unprecedented growth in recent years. For example, residential construction
grew markedly, particularly in Malé and in the recently reclaimed Hulhumalé.
This growth reflects the natural growth of the population and rapid
urbanization. Malé being the main commercial hub of the country and the Capital
City, a large number of people from the outer Islands migrate to Malé annually
looking for employment opportunities, better health and better educational
services. This rapid urbanization is driving the demand for rental
accommodation in Malé, fueling the growth of residential construction.
The
construction, repair and refurbishment of luxury resorts is another important
driver of growth in the construction sector since the inception of the tourism
industry across the Maldives. The tourism sector is the single most important
sector of the economy and directly accounts for one third of the economy.
However the construction sector is a vital sector of the Maldivian economy. It
covers the construction of Roads, Jetties, Harbors, Land Reclamation, Bridges,
Civil works, the building of Factories, Houses, Offices, Schools, Apartments
and Sewerage projects. In addition to the direct contribution from the
construction industry to the economy the sector also contributes indirectly
through its links to other sectors of the economy
Buildex
Maldives 2019, aims to provide a platform for B2B and B2C engagement. The event
also sets the stage for Exhibitors to showcase the latest advancements in
construction supplies, Machinery and Equipment.
The
Maldivian Construction industry is looking to find solutions for the challenges
in the construction industry. Some of the major challenges being the availability
of labor for the industry and the implementation of sustainable best practices.
The industry needs exposure to labor saving methods and devices,
environmentally friendly and sustainable methods and materials in an effort
towards finding ways and means of reducing the carbon footprint of the
industry.
