Textile & Garments Trading in IFZA Free Zone

Why IFZA Free Zone

Unlike some zones, IFZA Free Zone does not require a large paid-up capital to be blocked in a bank account before the licence is issued. One of the reasons we recommend IFZA Free Zone is its Dubai address, which matters more than most entrepreneurs realise once the business is running. IFZA Free Zone is a sensible home for textile & garments trading because importing and wholesaling fabrics, garments, uniforms and home textiles is a well-understood activity there and the approvals are routine.

On the ground, since 2021, most mainland activities have allowed 100% foreign ownership, and free zones have always offered it, so textile & garments trading in IFZA Free Zone no longer requires a local partner. The UAE sits within an eight-hour flight of two-thirds of the world's population, and for that reason so many entrepreneurs choose it as a base for textile & garments trading in IFZA Free Zone.
