FAQ's
An exhibition stand contractor in Dubai is a company that designs, fabricates, installs, and dismantles exhibition stands at trade shows and events in the UAE. Maple Expo is a full-service exhibition stand contractor — we handle every stage of your stand from initial 3D design through to post-show dismantling, including all venue permits and compliance at DWTC, ADNEC, and other UAE venues.
Exhibition stand contractor costs in Dubai typically range from AED 15,000–35,000 for a 9–18 sqm custom stand, AED 30,000–60,000 for a corner stand (18–36 sqm), and AED 70,000+ for large island stands or double-deck structures.

Yes. Maple Expo specialises in working with international companies — from Europe, Asia, the US, and beyond — who are coming to exhibit in Dubai. We manage the full project remotely: 3D design approval via email or video call, fabrication in our Dubai workshop, permits submitted to DWTC or ADNEC, and stand installed before you arrive. You approve the design from your home country and arrive to a finished stand.
In practice they mean the same thing — both refer to a company that designs and builds exhibition stands. 'Contractor' typically implies a more comprehensive service including project management, venue permits, and compliance, whereas 'builder' might suggest fabrication only. Maple Expo provides both: full contractor services including design, permits, and project management, plus in-house fabrication in our Dubai workshop.
We recommend contacting your Dubai exhibition stand contractor at least 8–10 weeks before your show date. For peak season shows — Gulfood (February), Arab Health (January), GITEX (October), The Big 5 (November) — book 12 weeks ahead as contractor schedules fill quickly. Maple Expo also offers fast-track services for urgent projects.
