ABU DHABI, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News / WAM - 29th Jan, 2020) The UAE trade in aluminum amounted to around AED 8 billion during the first three months of 2019, according to statistics revealed by the Federal Competitiveness and Statistics Authority.
The Emirates' trade in the metal hit a record of AED 6.5 bn during the reference period, a growth of 23 percent over the corresponding period in 2018. This accounts for 2 percent of the country's total non-oil trade during the first quarter of 2019, which stood at AED396 billion, corroborating the prestigious position enjoyed by the UAE across this industry.
The steady growth in this kind of trade corresponds to the rising demand on the metal locally and globally.
