The preparations are at full speed, Alagöz added. “This year the HOMEbuilding Fair will be held for the second time. With amazing public interest and encouragement from our exhibitors, TÜYAP is doing a first in Adana fairs history and organising the same fair for the second time in one year.  We also have a lot of activities planned for the other three fairs. Everyone at Tüyap is working hard to make the second half of 2017 just as successful as the first half"

The second HOMEBuilding Fair on 14-17 December will be following the footsteps of the successful first fair held earlier this year on 9-12 March 2017. Alagöz says the fair is a venue that offers hundreds of selections from housing to furniture, bridal gowns to dowries to wedding organisations and jewellery. The intended audience is those who are getting ready for marriage.  Collections from many designers will be on display during the fair and special campaigns will be offered to the visitors. “HOMEbuilding will certainly be a platform for the young couples” Alagöz added.
