Dubai Aid City

A new facility for the rapid distribution and handling of International Aid had been launched in Dubai under the patronage of His Highness General Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum. The Dubai aid City, located at Jebel Ali Free Zone will provide warehousing for international aid organizations and take two years to complete.The Dubai Aid city will provide international aid organisations a unique logistical location from which to store, stockpile and distribute aid cargo via sea, land or air to locations around the world. Developers are liasing with aid organisations and agencies during the design of the warehousing and office facilities.The United Arab Emirates ranks among the most generous aid donors in the world. The humanitarian contributions are not always heavily publicized, but tens of thousands of people throughout the Arab World – and beyond – can testify to the generosity of the country’s rulers. Whether it is a new hospital in Palestine, a school in Sudan or relief work in war zones such as Iraq and Afghanistan, the UAE and Dubai have been major players within the international aid community for decades.Facilities at Dubai Aid City will include pre-built warehousing, storage areas and office facilities. Special requirements that have already been requested include cool and cold storage facilities for sensitive food and medical supplies, in addition to dry cargo facilities. Aid agencies can enjoy access to warehousing, office facilities and distribution solutions at dedicated areas in Jebel Ali Port - JAFZA and Port Rashid - Dubai City. “Jebel Ali Free Zone has consistently invested in state-of-the-art technology and information management systems, with skilled personnel to run them,” says Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem, Executive Chairman of Dubai Ports, Customs, and Free Zone Corporation (PCFC). “Our singular mission is to provide a conducive infrastructure for manufacturing and distribution, supported by quality, value-added services which, together with unrivalled incentives and proactive marketing, will attract and maintain reputable business that contribute to the diversification and growth of Dubai’s economy.” One of the most important requirements for the distribution of essential aid cargo is reliable, swift and efficient distribution through an effective logistics network. Organizations in Dubai Aid City, from its central location in the stable and peaceful environment of the United Arab Emirates, will be able to take full advantage of the benefits associated with the location and expertise of Ports, Customs and Free Zone Corporation, to ensure that there are minimal logistical or bureaucratic bottlenecks that could jeopardize such operations.
