Dubai’s International Media Production Zone (IMPZ) seeks to create a unique cluster environment for media production companies from across the industry value chain, and from across the world, to interact and collaborate effectively.
Catering exclusively to companies in the 3P industries – Printing, Publishing and Packaging – IMPZ is an initiative of the visionary Dubai government, under the patronage of parent company, Dubai Holding.
As a master developer, IMPZ will provide an environment of growth by building key facilities, investing in infrastructure, and forming a unique free zone that incorporates industrial, commercial, residential and community service projects under its mantle. The vast complex will be housed on a territory of over 43 million square feet of land, in the heart of commercial Dubai.
The IMPZ initiative is part of Dubai’s vision to develop itself into a global media hub. As such, it will provide a pro-business environment, sophisticated technology and community infrastructure to support and foster the growth of media production.
Key investments
IMPZ has committed to an initial investment of approximately US$ 280 million and it is expected that tenants in the printing and packaging business will invest a further US$ 280 million in machinery alone.
Irresistible advantages
The IMPZ initiative is designed to bring a wide range of benefits to the industry. As with other free zones in Dubai, companies joining IMPZ can avail of 100 per cent ownership and will be exempt from almost all corporate and personal taxes including those for machinery, equipment, raw materials and spares utilised by the industry. Furthermore, rules governing media production have been simplified to provide maximum ease of operations.
The innovative concept of creating a cluster of similar businesses in physical proximity is not a new one to Dubai, and its strategic advantages have been proven to pay off. Co-existing at a single location will enable print companies to coordinate production activities efficiently with feeder companies like machinery and equipment providers and suppliers of raw materials and spares. For small and medium-sized businesses, the time and costs involved in sourcing requirements will be considerably reduced, as they can avail of several shared services.
Multiple choices
The Zone’s production cluster focusing on the printing and publishing industries will provide superior infrastructure for various activities, available as leasehold land and distinct units for printing, production and warehousing.
Each unit will act as a complete facility for production operations with exits for loading and unloading raw materials and finished goods. The thermally-insulated production units will be made available on an annual rental basis.
Printing companies also have the option of taking multiple units or having a combination of both land and production units.
Ideal location
Situated on the Emirates Road, in close proximity to the Jebel Ali port and the recently announced Jebel Ali Airport City, IMPZ’s strategic location will considerably ease imports, exports and logistics operations. The new airport, when completed, will have a handling capacity of about 120 million passengers annually along with 12 million tonnes of cargo.
As for the location of Dubai at the crossroads of Asia, Europe and Africa, and with its enviable proximity to multiple markets, it has already proven its mettle as a central for various international operations
Eco-friendly environment
IMPZ will deploy and promote eco-friendly industrial environments, where tested concepts and practices will be adopted to recycle waste and enable companies to utilise each others’ by-products instead of disposing them as waste.
Renewable energy sources will be included in the site’s infrastructure to guarantee reliable and clean power.
Fulfilling lifestyle
Complementing and completing the community infrastructure, IMPZ has planned several residential and commercial amenities including family apartments and low-cost accommodation for blue collar workers. Supermarkets, recreational and healthcare facilities and services like banking will also be available in the Zone
