Omega Seiki Mobility to Invest AED92 Million in EV Assembly Plant at Dubai's Jafza
Omega Seiki Mobility (OSM), a leading Indian electric vehicle manufacturer, has announced the launch of its first overseas electric vehicle assembly plant in Dubai's Jebel Ali Free Zone (Jafza), committing AED92 million (US$25 million) over the next five years. The move aims to accelerate the company's global expansion and meet rising demand for low-emission transport in the Middle East and Africa. Covering 42,000 square feet, the facility will assemble OSM's range of electric two- and three-wheelers and serve as a storage and distribution hub for auto components and spare parts. Operations are expected to begin by the end of 2025, with the initial phase creating over 100 jobs. Strategically positioned to serve export markets, the plant will enhance UAE-India trade ties in clean technology. Abdulla Al Hashmi, COO of Parks & Zones at DP World GCC, said: With the MENA EV market projected to reach US$14.5 billion by 2029, this facility brings innovative mobility solutions closer to the region and underlines Dubai's role as a global hub for the automotive sector. OSM Founder and Chairman Uday Narang described the launch as a significant milestone, highlighting Jafza's connectivity to over two billion consumers and its enabling business environment. He added that the company's goal is to make clean mobility accessible and commercially viable for partners across the region. While OSM's immediate focus is on EVs, the company also plans to introduce CNG-powered models for select African markets as a transitional clean fuel option. Its flagship products, the OSM Rage+ cargo three-wheeler and OSM Stream passenger vehicle, offer ranges of up to 270 km, fast-charging and battery-swapping capabilities, and IoT-based fleet management features. With more than 160 dealerships in India and over 20,000 vehicles on the road, OSM is positioning Dubai as its global launchpad for clean transport solutions, reinforcing the emirate's role in shaping the region's sustainable mobility future.

UAE, Philippines strengthen bilateral trade and investment ties
Minister of Foreign Trade Dr. Thain bin Ahmed Al Zeyoudi held a meeting with the Philippines Business Council in the UAE to explore expanding private sector relations between the two nations. The meeting touched on ways to build and expand partnerships between the business communities and the private sector on both sides. During the meeting, Al Zeyoudi highlighted the growing economic partnership between the UAE and the Philippines, with non-oil trade growing to over $257.7 million in the first half of 2025. In 2024, the total volume of non-oil trade reached approximately $940 million. The UAE is the Philippines' top export market among Arab and African countries as well as its 17th largest globally, demonstrating the strong foundation on which both nations can further expand collaboration. "The Philippines is a key trading partner for the UAE in the growing ASEAN region, and we are committed to fostering stronger ties at all levels," Dr. Al Zeyoudi stated. With a significant Filipino diaspora residing in the UAE, working primarily in sectors such as construction, healthcare, and hospitality, the meeting also aimed to explore how these communities can further contribute to mutual prosperity from the growing economic ties. The meeting follows the agreement of a bilateral Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) last July, aimed at enhancing trade cooperation and investment opportunities. The Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement is expected to mitigate trade barriers, boost investment flows, and open new avenues for trade, investment and collaboration in key sectors including agriculture, financial services, and electrical equipment. The UAE-Philippines CEPA represents a significant addition to the UAE's global trade program. The CEPA is forecast to increase the UAE's GDP by US$2.4bn and increase exports to the Philippines to US$7.62 billion by 2032.
