Jafza achieves 21% growth in H1 2014
Jebel Ali Free Zone (Jafza) has posted over 21 per cent growth in the number
of new companies conducting business there in the first half of 2014
compared with the same period last year.
363 new multi-nationals have chosen the free zone as their regional base in
the first six months. Quite a few of these new joiners are Global Fortune
500 companies, according to the flagship free zone operation of Dubai.
More than 50 per cent of these new companies come from the Asia Pacific, led
by India and China, while 10 per cent are from the Americas and the UK,
which reinforces the strategic importance of Jafza as the hub to serve the
thriving Middle Eastern markets.
Ibrahim Mohammed Al Janahi, Deputy CEO of Jafza and Chief Commercial Officer
of Economic Zones World (EZW), parent company of Jebel Ali Free Zone,
commenting on the robust growth of the Free Zone, said, "The large number of
high profile multinationals that we have attracted in the first half
reinforces Jafza’s invincible status as the gateway to the Middle East and a
key driver to attracting foreign direct investment into Dubai and the
country. Jafza accounts for almost 40 per cent of FDI into the emirate and
20 percent into the UAE. The leading sectors that attracted new companies
into the free zone include machinery and equipment, it and electronics,
building materials and foodstuff."
Jafza remains one of the key drivers of Dubai and the UAE’s non-oil economic
development. The free zone accounts for more than a half of Dubai’s exports
and a quarter of its total non-oil trade. Jafza, according to a PwC report,
contributes more than 21 per cent to the GDP of Dubai.
Al Janahi continued, "Dubai’s right to host World Expo 2020 provides further
push to the continuously growing trade and commerce in the UAE and the
region. As a facilitator, we have launched a number of important initiatives
such as Matajircom and Halal Zone that follow and support the government’s
strategy to fulfil the vision of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al
Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, to
make Dubai the most dynamic economy in the world."
During the first half of the year, Jafza has announced two important
initiatives: Matajircom and Halal Zone that are expected to have a strong
impact on the UAE and the entire Middle East.
Jafza is one of the most diverse free zones in the world. It is currently
home to 7,500 companies. 17 per cent of these companies are in IT and
electronics, 15 per cent in construction material, 12 per cent in chemical
and petroleum products, 12 per cent in machinery and equipment, 10 per
cent in food and healthcare, 9 per cent in automotive and 5 per cent in
logistics sector.
