Adihex got under way on Monday to highlight the importance of protecting the environment and promoting sustainability while honouring the country’s rich traditions.
Held under the theme of “Sustainability and Heritage – A Reborn Aspiration”, this year’s event features 680 companies and brands from 44 countries and 319 exhibitors, as well as more than 20 local and international falconry clubs, associations and institutes.
The exhibition took a break in 2020 owing to Covid-19 but has returned this year with its biggest event yet.
