Launching Mara’ee 6 is part of the ongoing national strategic initiatives and projects aimed at increasing the contribution of the livestock and agricultural sectors to achieving food security and supporting the national economy, by providing the best investment opportunities in one of the largest exhibitions held in Bahrain, given the outstanding success of the previous editions in attracting a large number of local and foreign visitors.
