Dhofar Global promotes sustainability across GCC countries through strategic partnership with UAE’s Palmade | iHeartEmirates
UAE, June 03, 2024: 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
