IV. Market Overview

1. Dubai enjoys a superior geographical location, is the largest commodity distribution center and transportation hub in the Middle East, radiates a population of 1.5 billion, is one of the most important commodity distribution centers in the world, is known as the "air traffic hub", and 41% of goods are transshipped in Dubai.

2. Dubai is known as the "Hong Kong of the Middle East" and is the financial and economic center of the entire Middle East. With its free and relaxed economic policies, unparalleled geographical location, and complete infrastructure, it has become the transportation hub and the largest trading center in the Middle East. Through Dubai, goods can be resold to the Gulf region, Eastern Europe, Africa, and South Asia.

3. The Middle East has the highest per capita car ownership rate in the world, and almost all cars and parts rely on imports. In addition, the Gulf countries have more than 45% of the world's oil reserves. Extremely low fuel costs, high income levels, and an annual population growth rate of 6% are important reasons for the rapid growth of the demand for auto parts in the Middle East.

4. The automotive market and automotive aftermarket in the Middle East are developing rapidly. In addition to higher consumption levels, there is a very important factor—public transportation in Middle Eastern countries, especially in the Gulf countries, is not well-developed, and there is no competition from rail transit for automobiles. Although Dubai is building subways and light rail, it will take many years for these rail transit systems to mature, so the automotive market and automotive aftermarket are in a golden period.

5. Statistics show that in 2018, the total value of the Dubai automotive aftermarket reached US\$61 billion, of which the Middle East reached 28.14 billion yuan, with a year-on-year growth rate of 5.8%, and is expected to reach US\$39.6 billion in 2024. In 2018, the value of the African automotive aftermarket was US\$33.17 billion, with a year-on-year growth rate of 6.25%, and is expected to reach US\$47.73 billion in 2024.

6. In 2018, the sales volume of passenger cars in the Middle East was 2.3 million, and the sales volume of commercial vehicles was 430,000. The total sales volume in 2024 is expected to reach 3.68 million (passenger car sales are expected to reach 3.07 million, and commercial vehicle sales are expected to reach 610,000).
