The FMCG (Fast-Moving Consumer Goods) sector encompasses items consumed quickly, including not just food and retail but also rapidly consumed items like clothing and mobile phones. This sector has emerged as a global leader, recording a 4% market growth in 2016, with the Middle East and Africa regions showing a notable 10% expansion.
In the UAE, the FMCG industry has demonstrated consistent growth. For instance, the UAE recorded an external trade volume of 9 million tonnes, amounting to AED 32 billion in the first half of 2021. Dubai specifically accounted for imports worth AED 22 billion during 2021, establishing it as a frontrunner among the emirates. Despite facing inflation challenges, Dubai remains a pivotal hub in the FMCG landscape, owing to its cosmopolitan nature and a diverse workforce that attracts numerous international FMCG giants to establish their presence in the city.
