economic expansion is bolstered by a diversified industrial base and strategic location.

The Report: Ajman 2025 offers a comprehensive analysis of the emirate’s investment landscape and

long-term growth strategies.

The emirate has demonstrated resilience and growth across key sectors, particularly in manufacturing,
real estate, and logistics, supported by initiatives such as the Ajman Free Zone and 100% foreign
ownership laws. Infrastructure developments in transport and logistics, alongside the construction of

mixed-use real estate projects, underline the government’s commitment to diversification and economic
expansion.

Ajman’s economic vision is driven by policies aimed at regulatory efficiency, industrial growth, and the
development of priority sectors such as health care and education. The emirate’s long-term strategy
aligns with Ajman Vision 2030, balancing economic progress with tradition to ensure sustainable growth.

The streamlining of trade practices through digital solutions and regulatory enhancements is further
strengthening its business environment, while increased integration of the industrial sector into global
supply chains is positioning Ajman as a competitive player in international trade. Additionally, Ajman is

leveraging its strategic location to expand its cultural and tourism offerings, reinforcing its appeal as a
business and lifestyle destination.

Jana Treeck, OBG’s Managing Director for the Middle East, noted that Ajman’s strategic approach to
economic diversification is reinforcing its status as a key investment destination.

“Ajman’s proactive economic policies, combined with regulatory reforms and infrastructure
development, are enhancing the emirate’s attractiveness to investors. Its efforts to modernise industries

and integrate digital solutions reflect a broader commitment to fostering sustainable and inclusive
economic growth,” Treeck said.

Oliver Cornock, OBG’s Editor-in-Chief, highlighted the broader implications of Ajman’s evolving
economic landscape.

“Ajman’s ability to balance economic expansion with regulatory enhancements and industrial
modernisation is shaping a business-friendly environment that is well positioned for long-term growth.
As the emirate deepens its integration with global markets, its competitive advantages are expected to
further strengthen investment prospects,” Cornock commented.
