Dubai SME, a government agency tasked with developing the small and medium enterprise sector, supported its members with government procurement contracts worth Dh896 million in 2020.
The contracts came from 61 local and federal government entities and other establishments as part of the Government Procurement Programme (GPP) that helped start-ups and SMEs in Dubai to enhance their competitiveness and sustain growth during the Covid-19 pandemic, the agency said in a statement on Saturday.
"The Government Procurement Programme reflects the continuity and firm commitment from the public and private sectors in the country to supporting SMEs," Sami Al Qamzi, Director General of Dubai Economy, said.
