The main idea was to start my own business and grow in the UAE market as a business owner & live in Dubai long term as Dubai is one of the best cities to live in.
Tell us about some of the major turning points in the history of your business.
2011: Hadanco Packaging Solutions LLC was established as a company.
2014: Major corporate restructuring took place when new shareholders joined the company.
2016: Increased product range and introduced Composite Corded Strap in our product range. Until 2017, it was a struggling period for us since the company was operating at losses.
2018 & 2019: The business grew well during 2018 & 2019 and the business got a major breakthrough after the introduction of the new product Composite Cord Strap and the business was well established once again.
2020: COVID-19 hit the world in 2020 however we were able to survive with some dent in business which dropped our sales during the COVID-19 period.
2021: Adopted digital marketing strategy in 2021 onwards which produced good results and contributed well to business growth.
2022: Recovery from COVID-19 and increase in product range and introduced Hotmelt Baling Strap, Lashing Strap, Strapping Machines, Wrapping Machines, and Case Sealing machines to our product range.
What made you choose Dubai as a location to set up your business?
The major reason was my wish to live in Dubai for the long term as I love living in Dubai and it was not possible being on job. Furthermore, I had knowledge and experience of the Dubai market during my job, so it was good to make a startup for my own business in Dubai.
What sets your business apart from the competition?
Competition cannot be avoided. It's always there and it will remain there. However, we are offering well know packaging brands from USA & EUROPE which gives us a competitive edge over our competitors.
