This initiative comes as part of DED's efforts to provide quality services to customers and ease the pressure on DED's headquarters in Deira.

The office will also identify and suggest ways to solve the problems. Announcing the list of violations by business establishments and the fines imposed, thereof, is also part of the services.
"The Dubai Department of Economic Development is committed to launching new initiatives and services to keep pace with the commercial and economic growth of the emirate. The new office in Al Twar branch will enhance communication between DED and the trademark owners and consumers to provide adequate protection in the framework of related laws and regulations," said Mohamed Hilal Al Muroushedi, Director of Compliance Division at DED.
