Sharjah’s Hamriyah Free Zone, Rafid partner to set up integrated technical centre for auto services

Hamriyah Free Zone Authority (HFZA) has partnered with Rafid Automotive Solutions to establish an integrated technical centre within the free zone and provide vehicle repair, maintenance, inspection, as well as registration services and roadside assistance.

The partnership agreement aims to upgrade the level of their services rendered to investors in free zones.

Saud Salim Al Mazrouei, director of Hamriyah Free Zone Authority, said: “HFZA’s cooperation with Rafid will undoubtedly improve the calibre of services made available to the business community in Sharjah, in line with Sharjah government’s directives, which has always favoured public-private partnerships to serve the wider community.

“The agreement is yet another milestone that would strengthen the quality of services delivered by the Hamriyah Free Zone to international companies be it existing ones or those looking to base their operations in a vital investment hub that guarantees the growth, development and prosperity of their businesses.”

He said HFZA will make the most of all accessible resources to deliver the best services in accordance with the highest standards of quality, efficiency, and effectiveness, in addition to developing innovative solutions that would elevate the journey of companies operating within its borders to go above and beyond their expectations.

Salem Saeed Al Midfa, CEO of Rafid Vehicle Solutions, said: “Our partnership with the Hamriyah Free Zone will play a significant role in expanding Rafid’s scope of work in various cities and regions of the emirate.”

In addition to offering industrial and commercial plots of land, HFZA, the second-largest industrial-free zone in the UAE, provides advanced infrastructure and modern facilities that strengthen external expansion plans for investors, especially in importing and re-exporting, to the world’s markets.
