Dubai Industrial City, a member of Tatweer, recently hosted a networking session for more than 65 industrial manufacturers and investors from across the UAE, introducing them to state-of-the-art facilities being set up at the region's first dedicated industrial zone.
Escorted by senior officials of the Dubai Industrial City, manufacturers of machinery and mechanical equipment, transport equipment, parts and chemicals were given an exclusive overview of its progress and the investor friendly incentives provided within the six clusters.
Rashed Al Ansari, CEO of Dubai Industrial City said: 'This is the first of many meetings that we intend to hold for the Dubai business community and our investors. They serve a dual purpose; while keeping them informed about the developments within the City, it also helps us gain an understanding of their business requirements.
'It is this open door policy that we share with our clients that has made it possible for Dubai Industrial City to be up and running within record time. The City is already witnessing high activity with investors setting up factories and production units across six dedicated zones - a unique achievement considering it is just two years since the concept of the industrial free zone was launched.'
Al Ansari added the Dubai Industrial City's conformity to stringent industrial standards in quality, health, safety and the environment (QHSE) through the Dubai Quality Mark has earned it rapid credibility as a leading destination for industrial production.
Investors at the networking meet were also introduced to several value added incentives that are being developed to support businesses within the integrated industrial facility, such as the AED 1.6 billion dedicated labour accommodation with 87,000 beds.
Al Ansari said: 'Much of the high investor demand for leasing land at the City could be attributed to the fact that it not only meets all their business requirements, but also supports a fully self-contained community, complete with a downtown area of residential complexes, entertainment areas, industrial mall, conference facilities and hotels.
'All these initiatives are launched with the investor in mind to ensure that we offer services that will help them set up and grow their businesses, while contributing to Dubai's economy.'
Located in close proximity to the new Jebel Ali Airport and Jebel Ali Port, with easy accessibility to major highways such as Sheikh Zayed Road, Emirates Road and the Dubai Ring Road, the Dubai Industrial City is spread over 560 million square feet offering a dedicated industrial destination that comprises six industrial clusters for food and beverage, base metal, mineral products, chemicals, transport equipment and parts, and machinery and mechanical equipment. |
