Arabian Ethicals Expands Operations at Dubai Silicon Oasis
Arabian Ethicals, a key player in healthcare solutions and pharmaceutical distribution under the Ghobash Group, has announced the expansion of its operations at Dubai Silicon Oasis (DSO), a specialized economic zone known for innovation and knowledge and a member of the Dubai Integrated Economic Zones Authority (DIEZ). This strategic expansion marks a significant milestone in Arabian Ethicals' journey, enhancing its capacity to serve customers and suppliers with state-of-the-art facilities and reaffirming the company’s commitment to innovation, quality, and customer satisfaction.
The expansion follows the establishment of Arabian Ethicals' regional headquarters and National Distribution Center at DSO in June 2021. Initially operating from eight light industrial units (LIUs) covering 2,882 square meters, the company has now added six more LIUs, bringing the total operational area to 5,323 square meters. This development underscores DSO's reputation as a preferred destination for businesses due to its smart city infrastructure, strategic location, and streamlined business services support.
The newly inaugurated LIUs, spanning over 2,441 square meters, are equipped with advanced storage solutions, including climate-controlled environments to ensure the integrity and safety of pharmaceutical products. The facilities also feature automated inventory management systems, streamlining the supply chain process and ensuring timely and accurate deliveries.
Mr. Hasan Metla, CEO of Ghobash Group’s operating companies, commented, "As we venture into a new era of growth and expansion, we are excited about the possibilities that the future brings. At Arabian Ethicals, our ongoing commitment to strengthening our capabilities is geared towards delivering premium pharmaceutical and healthcare distribution solutions that advance the UAE’s overall healthcare ecosystem."
Dr. Joe Chiniara, General Manager of Arabian Ethicals, added, "We are thrilled to open our new LIUs in Dubai Silicon Oasis. The state-of-the-art facilities are a testament to our commitment to growth and excellence. They not only enhance our capacity but also enable us to provide superior service to our customers and suppliers. As the healthcare landscape in the UAE continues to evolve, we are dedicated to staying at the forefront of innovation and quality."
The strategic location of DSO, offering unparalleled connectivity to major transportation networks, including Dubai International Airport and Jebel Ali Port, allows Arabian Ethicals to optimize its distribution channels, reducing lead times and improving overall supply chain efficiency. The expanded capacity of the LIUs is designed to meet the growing demand for healthcare products and services in the UAE, supporting the needs of a rapidly growing population and the increasing complexities of pharmaceutical distribution.
In addition to enhancing operational efficiency, the new facilities reflect Arabian Ethicals' commitment to sustainability, incorporating eco-friendly features such as energy-efficient lighting, waste reduction systems, and water conservation measures, aligning with the company’s broader environmental goals.
As Arabian Ethicals continues to expand its footprint in the UAE, the company remains focused on delivering exceptional healthcare solutions, with its new LIUs playing a critical role in supporting future growth and innovation
