Dubai Business Hubs See 22% Profit Growth in H1 Amid Rising Rental Demand

Strong occupancy rates and increased leasing activity drive solid financial gains in the first half of 2025

Dubai’s leading business and innovation districts recorded a 22% increase in net profit during the first half of 2025, supported by a surge in rental demand and strong occupancy levels across commercial assets.

Total revenues rose to approximately AED 1.14 billion, reflecting continued interest from companies seeking high-quality office and workspace solutions in strategically located hubs. The average occupancy rate remained at a healthy 88%, underscoring the resilience of Dubai’s commercial property sector amid global economic shifts.

This growth was driven by a combination of factors, including strong demand from sectors such as technology, media, science, and education, as well as a stable pipeline of long-term leasing contracts. Operational efficiency and enhanced service offerings also contributed to the positive performance, as many firms prioritize well-managed, sector-focused environments to support their expansion goals.
