Emirates Business

Ras Al Khaimah Economic Zone continues to go global with its upcoming participation at this year’s Pakistan International Trade Fair (PITF), one of the biggest consumer and trade fair happening in Expo Centre Karachi from October 26 to 29. Expected to gather more than 120,000 visitors and 16,000 exhibitors from 20 different countries, RAKEZ will capitalise on event’s large-scale attendance to tap into expanding players in the field of construction, automobile, chemical, pharmaceutical, and textile, among others.
“Over the years, investors from Pakistan have been consistently very active in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) market. In 2014, investments by Pakistani nationals in the UAE reached $23 billion, and most of them are heavily investing in the country’s property market,” said Ramy Jallad, Group CEO of RAKEZ, RAK Free Trade Zone and RAK Investment Authority.
“However, UAE, particularly RAKEZ, presents boundless investment opportunities not only in real estate but in over 100 industries – this is just in addition to the range of incentives that we provide to our clients, such as bespoke facilities, first-class services and simplified business set-up processes. We are very eager to interact with local investors during the Pakistan International Trade and offer them a sneak peak of what RAKEZ has to offer.”
