While many travelers seek the pleasures of one exotic destination, Dubai offers globetrotters a variety that is quite unmatched. From 7 start hotels like the Burj Al Arab to the hideaway Al Maha Resort in the middle of a desert ? Dubai?s hotel variety is amazingly diverse.
This variety has contributed to a surge in visitors to Dubai and increased occupancy. Recent data from TRI Hospitality Consulting shows that the occupancy rate in Dubai rose to 78.6% in September compared to 71.8% in the same month one year ago. The strong recovery in occupancy prompted hoteliers to increase room rates by 10.9% for the month, resulting in a 21.5% growth in RevPAR (revenue per available room) compared to the same period a year ago, TRI found.
As James Peter a frequent traveler to Dubai shared, ?I was inspired by a book on Dubai to visit this desert city. To my surprise, the city is home to some of the finest hotels in the world, from the famed Burj Al Arab to the Emirates Towers by the Jumeriah Group.?
?The best part is?, James continues, ?you can also find budget hotels that offer clean rooms and great service for a few hundred dollars. During our trip, we tried different grades of hotels and we were delightfully surprised that most of the [hotels offer top class service.?
?One of our biggest discoveries was the Al Maha Reort?, James explained. ?It lies bang in the middle of the desert. The Al Maha Desert Resort resembles an ancient Bedouin encampment and is a secluded, internationally-awarded hideaway resort that offers personal and seductive experiences of the region’s history and hospitality, in absolute comfort.?

Follow us on LinkedIn – Given the high strung sensitivity of truck bedliners market on sales of pick up trucks in the region, the 2007-2009 world economic recession, which sent the automotive manufacturing industry reeling, not surprisingly squeezed market opportunities for truck bedliners market during the period. Tight budgetary conditions and low purchasing power led to a significant drop in sales of pickup trucks during the period, thereby affecting the number of pick up trucks plying on the road. High fuel prices during the period also led to significant fall in number of on-road trucks. This considerable drop in number of on-road pick up trucks and subsequent reduction in wear and tear of existing bedliners squeezed opportunities for market in the aftermarket segment.
The North American Truck Bedliners market staged a recovery in the year 2010 in line with the improvement in the economic scenario. The market over the next few years will be driven by technology advancements, especially those associated with new proprietary coatings and application techniques. For instance, manufacturers are focusing on using the coating characteristics of bedliners to address the needs of military, industrial, and other commercial applications. Unique solutions introduced in the market have a wide range of applications and options in terms of flexibility, durability, appearance, and protection. Technological advancements also allow distributors to better differentiate their products and gain competitive advantage.
Aggressive promotional strategies being adopted by leading manufacturers will also drive market opportunities over the next few years. Leading manufacturers of spray-on and drop-in bedliner products are undertaking aggressive advertising and marketing initiatives to attract new opportunities and strengthen their positions in the market. Manufacturers are focusing on various media at national and regional level, including television, print, and radio to reach out to the potential customer, thus driving significant opportunities. The growing demand for high-cost spray-on bedliners also augurs well for the market, as the expensive nature of the product category inflates revenue for the overall market.
As stated by the new market research report on Truck Bedliners in North America, the Spray-On Bedliners is the fastest growing product segment with dollar sales waxing at a CAGR of about 17.3% over the analysis period. Drop-In Bedliners is the largest product segment in terms of volume sales.

Future prospects for the Chewing Gum Production industry are decidedly sweet. According to IBISWorld, the nation?s largest publisher of industry research, through 2016, the anticipated economic recovery, renewed consumer spending and confidence, and innovative product introductions will drive industry growth. The trend toward premium products is also expected to gain momentum over the next five years as consumers seek functional chewing gum products that address health and nutritional concerns. For this reason, industry research firm IBISWorld, has added a report on the US Gum Production Industry to its growing Food Production report collection in the United States.
According to IBISWorld, while chewing gum sales remained strong against a crippling recession, the resurgence in consumer spending and confidence will shift demand toward premium products, like sugarless gum. In addition new products that highlight the health benefits of chewing gum, like dental and oral hygiene, are expected to continue debuting over the year.
The US Gum Industry has a high level of market concentration, which is primarily a result of an increase in acquisitions, along with organic growth for a majority of major players engendered by continued product innovation, strong brand loyalty and aggressive marketing. Major chewing gum players include Mars Inc, The Hershey Company and Kraft Foods. Mars Inc, which owns The Wrigley Company, produce some of the world’s most recognizable chewing gum brand names such as Juicy Fruit, Big Red, Wrigley’s Spearmint, Eclipse, Airwaves, Extra and Orbit. The Wrigley Company is embracing packaging improvements that promote convenience and eco-friendly attributes as they target the adult market. The Hershey Company which owns Bubble Yum began as the Lancaster Caramel Company, founded in Pennsylvania during the late 19th century. Cadbury PLC, which was acquired by Kraft Foods in July 2010, houses the Dentyne and Bubbilicious brands.
According to IBISWorld analyst, Mary Nanfelt, potentially threatening industry growth, however, is the increased availability of healthy alternatives, such as substitute snack foods, fruit and nut bars and cereals. ?In response, producers are expected to use higher quantities of sugar-free alternatives in their product mix to mitigate the unhealthy perception of their products,? says Nanfelt. As manufacturers adjust their product offerings to satisfy consumer tastes, revenue is projected to increase. “Constant new product introductions and the ability to respond to changes in consumer trends have caused this segment to become significantly more lucrative,? says Nanfelt.
