Dhofar Global, a leading B2B supplier of essential products in the Middle East, and Palmade, a UAE-based company that offers locally manufactured biodegradable products, have announced a strategic partnership. The partnership aims to deliver on the sustainability promises of both companies and advance the pressing green agenda by helping businesses throughout the GCC region replace single-use plastic products with eco-friendly, high-quality alternatives.
Using its extensive customer base, in-depth market expertise and wide geographic reach throughout the GCC region, Dhofar Global will further drive sales across the region and introduce Palmade’s biodegradable solutions to its wide range of clients in HORECA, facility management and corporate sectors.
Faleh Al Abri, CEO of Dhofar Global, stated: “Our collaboration with Palmade is a testament to our commitment to provide sustainable solutions to clients and help them reduce their environmental impact. We are particularly pleased with this partnership as it aligns with our strategic goal of supporting local manufacturers and helping them grow by providing access to our extensive client base throughout the GCC region. The shift to sustainability is essential for preserving our planet, and we aim to accelerate this transition by guiding our clients on this journey and promoting sustainable practices across various operational domains.”
The sustainability goals of both Dhofar Global and Palmade as well as their partnership align closely with UAE’s resolution to ban single-use plastic items starting January 1, 2025. These items include shopping bags, plastic stirrers, table covers, cups, Styrofoam food containers, plastic straws and plastic cotton swabs.
Lamis Al Hashimy at Palmade, stated, “Dhofar Global’s wealth of expertise and strong market presence position it as an ideal partner as we strive to broaden our horizons and introduce eco-friendly products to untapped businesses and markets. Through this collaboration we aim to connect with clients in the UAE, Oman, Qatar and beyond, further advancing our core objective of expanding and fortifying our market footprint, ultimately shaping a more sustainable future for the region. Our commitment to sustainability remains unwavering and we are delighted to join forces with Dhofar Global in championing this cause.”
Recognising the challenges faced in adopting sustainable practices, Dhofar Global and Palmade, are dedicated to catalysing this transition by showcasing the benefits of sustainable business operations to customers and end users. With a solid go-to-market strategy, Dhofar Global is well-equipped to ensure a successful collaboration with Palmade, supporting businesses of all sizes across the region to embrace environment-friendly practices.
