Opening cocktail marks new beginnings in Bahrain

By Jane Hobson, in Manama, Kingdom of Bahrain

The Middle East & Africa Duty Free Association (MEADFA) Conference kicked off in the Kingdom of Bahrain last night with an opening cocktail at the Sunset Lounge at the The Art Hotel & Resort.

Attendees were treated to food, drinks, music and a warm evening to network and catch up with industry colleagues. The cocktail event was sponsored by Dufry (Diamond), with beverages by Gulf Beverages FZE and African+Eastern (Platinum).

Among many notable attendees were representatives from Bahrain Duty Free, the Official Host of the MEADFA Conference, managed by the Tax Free World Association (TFWA).
