United Arab Emirates, 26 January 2021: DP World’s leading trade and logistics hub, Jebel Ali Free Zone’s (Jafza) solidified healthcare & pharmaceuticals businesses, facilitating 47 per cent of Dubai’s trade in 2020. The AED 21.8 billion trade generated by the free zone added much value to the economy of the emirate and the country. In 2021, the free zone also witnessed a 11 per cent year-on-year increase in its healthcare & pharmaceuticals customer base.
 
At Arab Health 2022, Jafza will showcase its dynamic business model, underpinned by its ‘strategic pillars’ to stimulate the healthcare & pharmaceuticals cluster in Jafza, which comprises over 400 companies from 59 countries. More than 10 per cent manufacture medicine, personal care products, pharmaceutical packaging, medical kits, hygiene products, etc., while 90 per cent are engaged in trading, storage and movement of goods.
 
Indigenous Manufacturing
