DMCC Company Formation
Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC) Introduction – DMCC Company Formation
The Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC) was established by the government of Dubai in 2002 to provide the infrastructure needed to enhance the trade flows of commodities such as energy, diamonds and stones, gold, precious metals and tea through Dubai.
DMCC’s mission was to make Dubai a global leader in commodity trading and to create a gateway for commodity trading through the Middle East and the rest of the world.
DMCC has since expanded to emerge as one of the key economic catalysts in Dubai, currently representing 15% of the total foreign direct investment in the emirate.
Dubai is one of the world’s top 3 centers for commodity trading and DMCC is now the largest and most rapidly expanding free zone in the UAE, with over 24,000 registered companies under its roof.
A variety of companies, including global corporations, regional industry leaders, and small to medium-sized businesses, are registered with DMCC. On average, 200 new companies become members of DMCC each month.
Some Awards and Global Recognition
- DMCC has been rated “A” by Standard & Poor’s, becoming the first free zone in Dubai and the second free zone in the UAE to achieve a full rating from the top credit rating provider globally.
- For 9 years in a row, DMCC has been the winner of the Global Free Zone of the Year award.
- DMCC received the fDi Intelligence’s Global Free Zones of the Year Award.

The result is the achieving, not only of high profitability, but the highest worldwide standards for gold and precious metals products. Dubai’s location, shipping facilities, air cargo facilities and access to a huge consumer demand appeal to key players of the gold and precious metals industry.
DMCC’s position as one of the globe’s leading gold trading centers reinforces Dubai’s image as ‘the City of Gold,’ with Dubai being responsible for an impressive 25% of global gold trade, most of which passes through DMCC.

DMCC Free Zone has established Dubai into a worldwide powerhouse in the diamond sector and one of the world’s leaders in rough and polished diamond trading. DMCC operates its diamond section, the Dubai Diamond Exchange, based in Almas Tower, within global industry standards. An example of this is the implementation of the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme (KPCS).
