Ras Al Khaimah Economic Zone (RAKEZ) and Ras Al Khaimah Public Works Department (RAKPSD) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to support the rollout of electronic Aber toll gate systems, which will regulate the movement of goods vehicles.
The primary goal of this collaboration is to improve the industrial inflow and outflow of RAKEZ clients' transport and logistical operations. RAKEZ industrial zones are home to businesses that move goods in and out of the emirate and the UAE on a regular basis. This collaboration will make it easier for them to enter new regional and global markets.
In its continuous efforts to boost the ease of doing business in Ras Al Khaimah, RAKEZ has been closely working with government entities through various agreements. RAKEZ Group CEO Ramy Jallad said, “As a leading regional economic zone, it is one of our primary responsibilities to create an environment conducive for the growth and expansion of the companies in our ecosystem. And this is possible by simplifying the processes and services that affect their business operations, whether those are fulfilled by us or other authorities.”
Director-General of RAKPSD, Engineer Khalid Fadel Al Ali said, “We are pleased with this cooperation to meet the needs of businesses, which comes as part of the Department's endeavour to support economic growth in the Emirate of Ras Al Khaimah. This is one of the many agreements concluded by RAKPSD with several entities, to achieve its strategic objective of strengthening the relationship with partners and the society, while serving the government of Ras Al Khaimah.”
Aside from government entities, RAKEZ collaborates with private service providers and international firms to provide value-added services to its clients. These services include everything from opening a bank account to bookkeeping and accounting to marketing and recruitment.
