How an order works.
Four steps. You see the full price before anything leaves Dubai.
Tell us what you need
Send a list, a spec sheet or a full tender pack. A photo of a handwritten list works too.
Get a firm quote
Price, delivery date and Incoterms, in writing. If it looks right, you sign it.
We source and ship
We inspect the goods, pack them, sort out the export papers and book the freight.
It arrives
Customs cleared and dropped at your door. Ask us where it is at any point and we'll tell you.
A supplier you can put in a contract.
- Bid and performance bonds, if the tender calls for them
- Certificates of origin, conformity and inspection with every shipment
- We have supplied government, NGO and donor-funded projects
- The delivery schedule goes into the bid, so you can hold us to it
Bab Al Amani means "the gate of hopes". For a trading company that's a practical thing: the container turns up on the day we said, and the customer orders again next season.
