Validating consumer complaints

SGS will also, at the Ministry’s request, handle the verification and inspection of consumer complaints falling under the
Ministry’s scope of work. This includes random sampling and testing of a range of products from the local market,

particularly baby food, cosmetics, and spare parts—to ensure they meet safety and quality standards. These efforts will
be carried out using SGS’s advanced technologies and laboratories that operate in line with relevant global best

practices.

Facilitating export of national products

The agreement paves the way for greater competitiveness of UAE-made products in international markets. Through
close collaboration, the Ministry of Economy and SGS Gulf Limited will provide comprehensive guidance and

information to streamline export procedures for goods and services, including easier access to required certifications.
This will significantly boost the global expansion efforts of local companies, especially small and medium-sized

enterprises (SMEs), also helping them meet regulatory standards across diverse global markets.

assurance, safety, sustainability, and compliance with international standards, SGS supports clients across a wide range
