Who you meet at INDEX Dubai

INDEX attracts interior designers, architects, fit-out contractors and procurement teams for hotels, offices and residences across the Gulf and the wider region.

Project buyers work to specifications and deadlines. They need dimensions, materials, certifications and lead times, and they share what they find with several people before anything is ordered.

At your INDEX Dubai stand

Point to the QR code

Buyers scan it and open your full range on their phone, in the browser, with no app to install.

Buyers send enquiries while you talk to the next visitor. Each one arrives in your inbox with their email.

Note each conversation

The same evening, add a note to each buyer: what they asked, what they need and when they place orders.

What buyers do after INDEX Dubai

Knowing the buyer’s next steps tells you when and how to follow up.

They take products to the project team

Designers present options to developers and operators. A link they can forward saves them building a deck.

They request specification sheets

Procurement teams want specifications and approvals before ordering. Complete product data speeds this up.

They plan around handover dates

Project buyers work back from opening dates. Clear lead times help them decide.

Following up with your booth link

EXAMPLE DATA

Stonecrest Interiors: after INDEX

A fit-out contractor asked about six lounge chairs and two side tables for a hotel in Abu Dhabi. Two days after the fair, the export manager sends a collection with those eight pieces.

The message shows prices, an MOQ of 40 chairs, fabric options and a 65-day lead time to Jebel Ali. The contractor forwards it to the interior designer and asks for a fabric sample.

Send within three working days, while the buyer still remembers your stand
Link to a collection of the products they asked about, not your whole catalog
State MOQ, lead time and price basis in the message
Offer samples or a video call as the next step

INDEX Dubai exhibitors ask

Can we quote for project quantities?

Yes. Each quote you send can carry price breaks by quantity, so project orders get the right unit price. Anything that needs a custom finish or size goes to your inbox with the buyer’s details.

Can buyers see certifications?

Mention the certificates you hold in each product’s description, where buyers and the assistant can read them. Send copies with your quote, and keep the documents current between fairs.

Do we need to price in dirhams?

Your booth shows prices in one website currency. Many exporters pick US dollars for Gulf projects. The booth shows only the prices you set, and each quote can be in dirhams.

What does a Digital Booth cost for INDEX Dubai exhibitors?

Exhibitors pay the same regular monthly price as every other company: Booth, Factory or Enterprise, shown in the pricing section above. You can preview your Digital Booth with five products before you pay anything.

What happens to the booth after INDEX Dubai closes?

Your Digital Booth stays live for as long as you subscribe. Buyers who kept your link can return to it when they plan orders, and you keep prices and products current between fairs.
