This event is very very important. I can see really here chance for Bosnia and even for Bahrain in Bosnia. I saw many productions from Bahrain here. That's very important. That would be very useful in Bosnia. The show sections included over 150 exhibitors and companies from various countries who were taking part. It's our third year participating in the show. It has made us grow tremendously. It built the company because every year we show different products and services that we offer in Bahrain.

This is our first time in Garden Show in Bahrain. As the company name of Yardan we are producing raw honey. They are all purely no chemical and the natural flora so they make it so pure and raw.
