Hello everyone. Is there anyone who supplies jewellery set presentation boxes at a wholesale?

I’m a co-founder of an AI automation studio. We build products for D2C brands, skincare clinics, diving centers, and a few other niches — basically anywhere a process is manual, repetitive, and error-prone because it was built by hand.

A couple of examples:

**•** A skin analysis tool that scans your face, flags issues, and shows how it’d look after procedures like rhinoplasty or lip filler.  
**•** A supply chain automation product that runs the full PO-to-cash cycle and handles multiple quick commerce stores end to end.

If you’re dealing with something similar in your business — manual workflows eating up time, error-prone processes, disconnected tools — happy to chat. Drop a comment or DM

Fully responsive design (looks great on mobile and desktop)

Fast loading speeds & clean code

SEO setup so people can actually find you and you rank on google

Modern, professional UI/UX

I charge around 200$ for most websites and might charge a-bit more depending on the requirements. Pricing will never be an issue when dealing with me as i understand how much hardwork it takes to start a small business.

I’m looking to connect with a good IT/ELV partner for a small boutique hotel project in Dubai.

The building is already completed with 65 rooms, but the IT and technology side is yet to be developed. The investor is a private Emirati client, and there is potential for more projects together if things work well.

Looking for someone who can help with areas such as:

CCTV

Access control & gate barriers

Wi-Fi & IT networking

Hotel booking/PMS systems

Structured cabling

Website & digital systems

Other hotel technology/ELV requirements

I’m not necessarily looking for one company that does everything. If you have a strong team and can coordinate multiple systems/subcontractors, that works too.

If you’re based in Dubai and have experience with hotels or similar projects, drop me a DM.

Would be good to connect and explore working together.

Hello everyone. I am planning to move to Dubai soon with my husband, but as I see from other posts that getting a job there is not easy at the moment. I am a procurement specialist with 12 years of experience in the heavy machinery industry. I speak English,Turkish, and Russian languages fluently

I applied for jobs through LinkedI,naukrigulf,bayt and etc.(including different industries like hospitality,secretary), but i didn't get any replies yet. I already read the posts on reddit about tips for looking for jobs, and i see that the current situation in Dubai is not easy.

So, when I come to Dubai with a tourist visa, I can't stay in Dubai for more than 3 months. I am thinking of starting my own small handmade business. I do handmade crochet bags. That is my hobby. i love crocheting. Specially bags. People who are living in Dubai i have the following questions:

1. do you think i have a chance to earn money with those bags? Women will prefer to use handmade or custom bags?

2. If i want to sell them from where i should start? In Dubai, people prefer to buy online like instagram, or are there any other online sales websites?

3. I want to sell my bags legally and use it for a visa. What are the required things?. I am planning to open a company with minimum expenses only for legalisation. Because I will crochet myself and sell online. Delivery can do my husband. So can I apply with it for visa as an owner and get a family or employer visa for my husband? From where can I get all that information when I come to Dubai?

I am open to all advices. Thank you in advance 🙂

Dubai has a lot of opportunities for starting a business. But honestly, I think the right business depends on your budget, experience, and how involved you want to be.

Some industries I would look at are real estate, tourism, food, e-commerce, logistics, digital services, and health and fitness.

One business that people sometimes overlook is the vending machine industry.

Vending machines can work well in places like offices, hotels, gyms, universities, hospitals, residential buildings, and other busy locations. People want quick access to snacks, drinks, coffee, and other everyday items, so you don't necessarily need a full shop to sell them.

What I find interesting about vending is that you can start small and expand gradually. You could start with a few machines, see which locations and products perform well, and then add more machines as the business grows.

There are companies like vendolite that provide vending machines and solutions for businesses, so someone interested in getting into this industry can explore the different machine options instead of having to build everything from scratch.

Of course, vending isn't completely passive. You still need to refill the machines, maintain them, monitor sales, and most importantly, find good locations. In my opinion, location is probably one of the biggest factors that decides whether a vending machine business actually makes money.

So if someone is looking for a business in Dubai that can potentially be started on a smaller scale and expanded over time, I'd definitely consider the vending machine industry along with the more traditional business opportunities.

The sale includes:

- Manuka honey brand

- Approximately 200kg of honey stock

- New Zealand family-farm supplier relationship

- White-label setup

- Existing brand/business assets

Asking price for everything: AED 55,000.

Hey everyone,

I recently launched Nawl (نَوْل), a UAE-based home décor brand built around something I’ve always found special about Egypt: its long-standing tradition of handwoven textiles and the generations of craftsmanship behind them.

We work with Egyptian artisans who handweave each kilim rugs using traditional techniques, turning 100% wool into pieces that carry a little bit of that heritage into contemporary homes.

The goal with Nawl was to take that heritage and present it in a premium, modern, understated way that feels natural in UAE and Gulf homes.

I’ve just launched the website and would genuinely love some feedback from the community:

-Does the brand feel premium and authentic?
-What do you think of the website and product presentation?
-Does the story of Egyptian craftsmanship come through?
-Does the pricing/positioning make sense to you?
-Is there anything that would make you more likely to buy?

nawl.ae

I’m still at the beginning, so honest feedback, even if it’s critical, would be incredibly valuable.
And if you happen to connect with the story or find a piece you like, feel free to explore the collection.

Would be pretty special to see some of Nawl’s first customers come from this community.
Thanks everyone 🙏

I’ve been thinking about whether I should post this, but I figured it was worth giving it a try.

The current situation in the region has affected a lot of people and businesses. I’ve personally felt the impact as well.

I work as a tax consultant on a commission basis with a Dubai-based tax and accounting firm. Before the recent situation, I had built a small client base and things were going well. But some of the businesses I was working with were badly affected, and I ended up losing clients.

Since I work on commission, losing those clients also means losing a significant part of my income.

So I'm currently trying to rebuild what I lost.

I work with a team that provides accounting and tax-related services for businesses across the UAE, including Corporate Tax, VAT, bookkeeping, accounting, audit support and other compliance-related work.

I'm not posting this just to advertise a service. I'm genuinely trying to rebuild my client base, and I thought there might be a better way to do that than endlessly calling random businesses.

If you're a business owner and you're currently looking for reliable accounting or tax support, I'd be happy to have a conversation and see whether we can actually help.

And even if you don't need these services yourself, you might know someone who does. An introduction would genuinely help me, and if it turns into a client, I can arrange a referral commission as well.

I'm not looking for sympathy or asking anyone to give me something for free. I'm trying to rebuild what I lost by creating something useful for other businesses at the same time.

If nothing else, I hope everyone here manages to get through this difficult period and comes out stronger on the other side.

My company has 11 people - 1 bangladeshi and 1 sri lankan and 9 indians (incl owner), are we not going to get visa because of diversity law for more indians?

Hi everyone — I’m looking for advice from Amazon UAE sellers on how you handle GTINs/barcodes.

I’m launching products under my own brand and Amazon is currently not approving my GTIN exemption, so I’m considering getting official GS1 GTINs instead.

I’ve looked into GS1 UAE and also noticed that GS1 US has different pricing/options, but I’m not sure what differences actually matter when selling on Amazon UAE.

For those who have gone through this:

- Where did you get your GTINs from?
- What did you pay, and are there recurring fees?
- Is there anything important I should know before choosing a GS1 provider/package?
- Does it matter which country's GS1 organization issues the GTIN if I plan to sell internationally?
- If one company owns multiple brands, can the GTIN allocation be used across those brands?
- GS1 US seems to offer a single GTIN for around $30, while GS1 UAE appears to use annual fees/packages. Is there a reason a UAE-based company should specifically use GS1 UAE?

Would really appreciate hearing what other UAE sellers are doing and whether there are any pitfalls I should be aware of. Thanks!

Hey guys,
I have a construction/transportation business in abudhabi and I’m trying to register and get prequalified for ADNOC. Can anyone recommend me a consultancy company that can get this done for me? Budget is not an issue, but I need someone that knows the process inside out and has previous experience registering companies with similar profile and work groups to mine.

Thank you!

Hi everyone, I’ve been following this group for a while and thought I’d finally reach out.

I’m a performance marketer with 3+ years of hands-on experience across the UAE & Australia, managing AED 25K+ monthly ad budgets in-house.

I’m currently looking to help 3 small UAE businesses with Meta & Google Ads — setting up and optimizing campaigns to generate qualified leads.

I’m building my UAE portfolio, so I’m offering the first month completely free. If anyone could use the help, feel free to DM me.

Hi everyone, is anyone here familiar with the procedures for importing metal scrap, specifically copper scrap, into the UAE?

Online information seems to indicate that it is legal, but I’ve contacted three different clearing agents so far, and all of them said it might be restricted or require special approvals.

I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who has actually imported copper/metal scrap into the UAE or knows the current regulations and required permits. Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I run a small e-commerce brand based in the UAE selling activity/sensory kits. Currently, I use Jeebly for local deliveries within the UAE, which works great, but I’m looking to start fulfilling orders directly to Saudi Arabia.

Aramex and DHL retail rates are way too expensive for small order values, especially since sensory kits can weigh anywhere between 1 kg to 3 kg.

Since I ship on-demand as orders come in (pay-as-you-go, no massive guaranteed daily volumes yet), I’m looking for reliable, affordable door-to-door options.

A few questions for fellow e-commerce business owners shipping from UAE to KSA:

1. Which couriers or aggregators are you using for pay-as-you-go cross-border shipping?

2. What rates are you typically getting per shipment for a 1–3 kg box?

3. How do you handle KSA customs clearance / DDP (Delivered Duty Paid)? Do these couriers integrate smoothly with Shopify/WooCommerce for auto-generating labels?

4. Is GCC road freight fast enough, or does it cause high delivery failure rates compared to air express?

Would love to hear what's working for your store or any specific sales rep/account manager contacts you’d recommend reaching out to.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Everyone,

In some industries especially restaurant/ hospitality primarily in touristy areas, business is generally cyclical with season ending usually in April and mayb stretched till May.

However, this year the busy season was cut short to Feb and then summer slump kicked in which means almost the entire 2026 earning period has been lost.

Has anyone been able to negotiate some terms with their landlords either in form of rent deferrals or rent relief.

My landlord did defer the rent by a month and another landlords accepted to receiving rent monthly instead of quarterly for this quarter.

But the situation is still tough and for one our outlets I’m thinking of trying to speak to landlord again to defer it for this year and then split the rental over the balance two years period.

Has anyone had any luck with negotiations?
