After the success of Salon du Chocolat Beirut, Dubai is set to become the second city in the Middle East to host the event.

Dubai Is The Second City In The Middle East To Host The Chocolate Show

“We are delighted to be bringing this exceptional show to one of the region’s most dynamic cities,” said Joumana Damous-Salame, managing director of Hospitality Services. Talking about the venue choice, Damous-Salame said: “Le Gourmet at Galeries Lafayette is known for its superior quality and has a French signature, which is symbolic given the fact that Salon du Chocolat was founded in Paris almost 30 years ago. Dubai Mall is also the most beautiful mall in the region and the second-largest mall in the world, so it was by far the most suitable location.”
