UAE and India - Strategic Economic Relations

His Excellency Salah Sharaf Al Hashimi, Executive Director- Sharaf Group - Board Member of UAEIIC

Sharaf Group started its shipping operations in India in the year 1996 under the banner of Samsara Shipping and then, gradually, expanded its business operations into Logistics Infrastructure and Services and today we have presence in PAN India with more than 70+ offices. 

The UAE-India ties have entered an exciting era of growth and both the nations are on the path to significantly reinforce two-way investments in major infrastructure projects through multiple channels and new areas of collaboration.

We firmly believe that India has a huge opportunity for development and given the current regime of transparency and time bound responses by the Government of India the gestation period for projects is surely improving and at the same time developments of basic infrastructure is not only supporting the networking abilities but essentially putting into place the basic infrastructure to energize the whole of India and in this process empowering the people of India and bringing future prosperity to its people.
