Jafza, the trade catalyst, has evolved into a unique trade ecosystem that reduces cost, while enabling new opportunities for growth.
From our humble beginnings in 1985, as part of the vision of His Highness Sheikh Rashid Bin Saeed Al Maktoum, we have matured into an ever expanding business platform that is ready for today. We have grown from a small operation of just 19 companies into a thriving business community with over 7,100 companies that continues to expand.
Our customers grew to 500 in the first decade of operation, with that number doubling in half that time. In the past decade, Jafza has achieved fourfold growth in its number of customers.
