Established in 2004 by TECOM Group PJSC with an astute masterplan, Dubai Industrial City is home to over 300 active companies and over 1,000 local, regional, and international manufacturing leaders, including heavyweights and innovators in the F&B industry. Situated in Dubai, the center for enterprises seeking to access numerous markets through a centrally connected headquarters, it is the perfect location at the intersection of Europe, Asia, and Africa. Manufacturers may readily import raw materials and export finished goods through Dubai Industrial City, which gives them access to the city's well-developed logistics infrastructure, including the Jebel Ali Port, Al Maktoum International Airport, Etihad Rail, and vital national and regional transportation networks.
One of the six sector-specific zones of Dubai Industrial City, the F&B space is a designated area that provides ready-to-use infrastructure, such as industrial lands, logistics and storage spaces, and cold-storage facilities, helping businesses save time and money when setting up their operations. The F&B zone, which has 23.5 million square feet, is home to major regional and international companies like Silver Line Gate Group, Asmak, and Barakat Quality Plus. By promoting innovative agricultural techniques and sustainable production, the designated area supports national socioeconomic and environmental goals. It also fosters idea exchange and reduces waste by fostering teamwork.
Dubai Industrial City is home to businesses from all over the world, and as the UAE looks at Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) agreements with nations like Kenya to open up new markets, They expect interest from Africa to expand as well. Additionally, the UAE's membership in BRICS offers our clients a chance to strengthen their connections with the rest of the world.
