As CEO of the Dubai Export Development Corporation (EDC), I am both proud and honored to be in a position where the activities of my team and the corporation will ultimately benefit our customers – being the small and large exporters of Dubai and the UAE.

As the first such organization to be established in Dubai, we are developing long-term strategies for growth of exports in Dubai and the UAE.We will provide the support required in order for our customers to have every opportunity to grow their business and in turn grow the GDP of the nation.  We already have much of the infrastructure and facilities in place so this is now our opportunity to build on this for the prosperity of the local and national environment.   
In order to achieve many of our objectives, we will work together with related government departments and institutions in the UAE. We will form strong partnerships with these organizations and by doing so, will aim to simplify the export process for our customers.

It is an exciting time for exporters in the UAE and I encourage you to be actively involved in the activities that the EDC will provide for you as an exporter and to engage with us so that we can all prosper for the betterment of our future.
