Arif Patel, an entrepreneur from Dubai, has revealed a partnership with the UK-based international trading company Preston Trading that is considered a major move to reinforce the presence of the company in the Middle East and to make the UAE a center for wider international operations.
This partnership will see Dubai becoming the main point for the joint business activities. The knowledge of the region by Patel will be paired with the trading network of Preston Trading, which is global, to help the trade routes, better supply chain coining, and to grow even more in the regional and international markets.
Commenting on the decision, Patel said the move reflects confidence in Dubai’s economic environment and a long-term commitment to building sustainable businesses in the UAE. “Dubai rewards long-term thinking,” he said. “It moves quickly, but it also offers stability and clarity, which are essential for building lasting enterprises.”

For Preston Investing, the Dubai partnership is no longer just about the regional office. The company intends to open up new avenues in trading and energy solutions, primarily through the strengthening of supplier and logistics partners, the smooth running of imports and exports, and the sharing of sustainable trade practices.
Patel pointed out that the UAE’s focus on efficiency, transparency, and forward planning is in line with the long-term vision of the company. The Dubai base will act as the central point of operations for the region, with gradual plans to move into other emirates and capture the wider Middle Eastern markets.
Dubai’s increasing attractiveness as a global business hub is another factor that increases the partnership’s timing. The logistics, finance, and technology sectors are predicted to be the major contributors to economic growth as a result of the continuous population growth and constant investor interest.
This collaboration is in line with the UAE’s Vision 2031, which focuses on innovation, sustainability, and economic diversification, among other things. According to Patel, Preston Trading is going to be a valuable partner by providing job opportunities, facilitating trade between the UK and the Middle East, and making substantive business connections.
In addition to the expansion of the company’s operations, it has also committed itself to carrying out business in an ethical manner that includes participation in and support of initiatives in the areas of education, health, and the community.
Patel sees Dubai as a pillar of support for his company’s future and as a window to the world for new ideas and, at the same time, a commercial center. He said, “This is only the start.” “Dubai is a lucrative market for the committed ones and the ones ready to grow along with it.”
