About RAKEZ

Ras Al Khaimah Economic Zone — industrial and commercial licences across the Al Hamra and Al Ghail parks.

RAKEZ is part of the emirate of Ras Al Khaimah, UAE. Dutch & Habro is appointing FMCG distribution partners here across its household pest control, hygiene, air care, home care, garden care and shoe care brands — on one agreement covering the full range.

What drives demand in RAKEZ?

Like the rest of the UAE, RAKEZ runs its buildings sealed and air-conditioned for most of the year, which turns household insect control into a continuous category rather than a seasonal one.

Because RAKEZ is a free zone, the mix skews toward bulk and re-export packs, warehouse pest control and industrial hygiene. We set the opening assortment against that profile rather than shipping a standard national pallet.

  • Bulk and re-export packs
  • Warehouse pest control
  • Industrial hygiene

Which pest control products sell in RAKEZ?

The pest-control range is where a RAKEZ partner sees the fastest rotation, and here that means rodent glue boards, bait stations and bulk crawling-insect aerosols.

Goodbye covers the household insecticide lines and Podo the dedicated rodent-control systems; both sell into bonded wholesale and re-export in RAKEZ under the same distribution agreement as the hygiene, air care, home care, garden care and shoe care brands.

  • Rodent glue boards
  • Bait stations
  • Bulk crawling-insect aerosols
  • Insecticidal powder and dust

Which channels carry volume in RAKEZ?

In RAKEZ the volume moves through bonded wholesale, re-export and institutional supply. Route coverage in the right streets matters more than head-office presence, and we look hard at van-sales strength when assessing an application.

  • Bonded wholesale
  • Re-export
  • Institutional supply

How stock reaches RAKEZ

Stock reaches RAKEZ through the import chain into the UAE, and territory partners typically hold four to eight weeks of cover. Lead times, reorder points and promotional support are agreed in writing before the opening order is placed.

What we look for in a RAKEZ partner

  • A trade licence in your own name covering the goods to be distributed.
  • Warehousing sized to the range, with compliant storage for aerosol lines.
  • Demonstrated route coverage in bonded wholesale or re-export.
  • Working capital for opening stock and one reorder ahead of receivables.
  • A named person accountable for the territory, not a shared desk.

  2. We review and respond within two working days.
  3. Commercial call on range, channels, margins and credit terms.

What investment is needed for a distributorship in RAKEZ?
Entry investment across UAE runs from AED 90,000 – AED 550,000 depending on the territory and the channels covered. That figure is opening stock, warehousing, vehicles and sales staff — the trade licence and any regulatory fees sit outside it.
Which Dutch & Habro products sell best in RAKEZ?
As a free zone, RAKEZ skews toward bulk and re-export packs, warehouse pest control and industrial hygiene. We set the opening assortment against that profile rather than shipping a standard national mix.
Which sales channels matter in RAKEZ?
Volume in RAKEZ moves through bonded wholesale, re-export and institutional supply. We assess applications on demonstrated coverage of those channels rather than on declared turnover alone.
Which pest control products can a RAKEZ distributor carry?
The Goodbye household pest-control range — cockroach and ant aerosols, gels, baits and chalks, mosquito liquids, coils and repellents, fly and lizard traps — plus the Podo rodent-control systems. Both are covered by the same RAKEZ distribution agreement as the hygiene, air care, home care, garden care and shoe care brands.
Is the territory exclusive?
Territory exclusivity is agreed case by case and written into the distribution agreement, along with the brands covered and the performance targets attached to it. Apply and our team will confirm what is currently open in and around RAKEZ.
