Brief Introduction of the Market
Name of Country: UAE
Major Market Challenges in Waste and Wastewater Management:
1. Tender driven market where lowest priced tender wins, despite quality requirements
2. Most competitive market in the Middle East
3. No major UK contractor/developer active in the UAE’s water sector
4. Important to develop a business relationship with local stakeholders and to be established locally rather than serving the market remotely
