Nasser Al Madani Assistant Director General, Dubai Airport Freezone Authority said: “We are keen to provide continuous support at all levels to foreign companies that are planning to operate within the free zone. DAFZ offers a wide range of services, facilities and unique management practices that enable companies to take advantage of its strategic location and tax exemptions, as well as the advanced infrastructure, logistics services, and the flexible business environment it offers.”

Commenting on the move, Mukul Shukla – General Manager MENA & India, said: “We are very proud to call DAFZ our new home and we at TNA MENA are confident of improving our logistics operations, making it even easier to supply our customers with the services and spare parts they need to keep their production lines running.

With 30 offices and manufacturing sites around the world, TNA is headquartered in Sydney, Australia and has been operating in the Middle East since 2006, having opened its first office in Dubai in 2007.

Launched in 2017, DAFZ Industrial Park is the first expansion project outside DAFZ’s boundaries and is located in Al Qusais Industrial Area, featuring modern industrial units supported by unique customs experience. It witnessed an occupancy rate of 82% during the first half of 2018 alone. The collaboration between DAFZ and Dubai customs positioned it as the first smart free zone in security and customs services, providing innovative and integrated services through the 24/7 automated smart centre, without the need of human interaction.

DAFZ Industrial Park is among the 20 freezones selected by the Cabinet Decision No. (59) of 2017, to be considered as a designated zone. Now, goods may be transferred among these areas tax-free, increasing its attractiveness to new companies and foreign investors.
