        supported by continued strong growth in tourism and residency, with Dubai remaining an

        attractive destination both for visitors and new residents relocating to the city.



        His Excellency Mattar Al Tayer, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Salik, celebrated

        another strong quarter for the company in 2024, building on the momentum from a record-

        breaking performance in 2023. He attributed the positive results to the company's strategic

        vision, commitment to shareholder value, and the favorable macroeconomic environment in

        the UAE, including robust GDP growth and tourism inflow.



        Ibrahim Sultan Al Haddad, CEO of Salik, echoed this sentiment, expressing satisfaction

        with the strong start to the year, highlighted by an over 8% increase in revenue-generating

        trips year-on-year. He emphasized the company's ambition to become a global leader in

        mobility solutions and its focus on diversifying revenue streams. Al Haddad announced

        strategic milestones, including the expansion of the toll gate network with two new gates in
        Dubai and the diversification into parking management solutions through a partnership with

        Emaar Malls. These developments position Salik for continued growth and success in the

        future.
