Today's announcement is in line with Chamber plans to open up new international markets for Dubai-based business. The Dubai export sector is valued at AED2.3 billion, nearly 40 per cent of the emirate's gross industrial product.
DCCI has helped organise a number of fairs and exhibitions abroad to promote local industry, especially in the Middle East and Arab World. For the first time recently, the Chamber participated in trade shows in India and West Africa.
Ahmed Al Banna, DCCI Assistant Director General for Studies and International Affairs, said: "The Chamber is committed to bringing itself closer to members and opening doors to make business quicker, easier and more effective."
Mr Al Banna continued: "The Chamber's ruling will further sharpen the competitive edge of local business and help develop opportunities for growth abroad."
