Glancing over the Islamic History we come to know that first exhibition was held in sacred city of Makkah on the eve of Hajj. People of different races came to Makkah and displayed their quality products in an excellent manner on the streets of Makkah around the Holy Ka'aba. It gave boost in selling of their products. Thereafter this idea traveled across the borders of Makkah to the different parts of the world and Exhibitions were being arranged in African, Asian, European and American continents with changing modern styles.

In, past many exhibitions were arranged indifferent cities of Pakistan, for attracting the attentions of foreign as well as local buyers. No doubt Gujranwala is a famous industrial city of Pakistan, producing different kinds of quality products according to international standard, which are being exported to many countries around the world.
