Dubai reports $23.4bn in Q1 2025 exports

The Dubai Chamber of Commerce announced that member exports and re-exports reached $23.4bn in Q1 2025, marking a 16.8% year-over-year growth.

The GCC retained its position as the leading trade destination, contributing 47.2% of the total trade value and underscoring the region’s strategic significance. Middle Eastern markets outside the GCC ranked second, followed by Africa, the Asia-Pacific region, and Europe.

The Chamber’s data reflects Dubai’s expanding global trade footprint and continued efforts to strengthen regional and international economic ties through its diversified export base.
