GAC

Overview

Although Dubai has been built on the back of the oil industry, efforts have been made in recent years to diversify the economy. As a result, Dubai has emerged as the major regional hub for industry, trade and tourism in the Middle East. The main port, Jebel Ali, has the world's largest man-made harbour and is in the Top Ten in terms of container traffic throughput. Dubai is a services hub for the Gulf region and also for transshipment cargoes heading to the Indian Subcontinent and East Africa.

GAC was one of the first foreign companies to set up in Dubai in the late 1960s and since then, we have built market leadership positions across shipping, logistics and marine services. Enduring and close relationships with local authorities ensure our customers are well looked after in all their service needs.

GAC's Corporate Head Office is also located in Dubai, in the Jebel Ali Free Zone.

GAC's Ship Supply Services base is located at our branch office in Fujairah but deliveries can be made at any of the ports within the UAE.
