Four-site Dubai nursery group with a KHDA-approved franchise model seeking a minority investor.
Multi-site nursery platform with a documented, KHDA-approved curriculum that is replicable and independent of the founders. EYFS core with French and Arabic classes at every location, plus a French-school partnership feeding enrolment. Clean cap table, single seller.
- Flagship site at full capacity; remaining sites at 50-70% with clear upside
- Franchise model already generating recurring royalty income
- Annual advance tuition payments give strong cash flow visibility
Bus service is not yet offered and is a direct fee-generating add-on with minimal capex. Residential-area expansion strategy offers stronger unit economics than premium locations, and holiday camps and ECA programs are active and scalable.
Acquisition financing for an 18-year-old Abu Dhabi industrial staffing platform with 750 deployed workers.
An 18-year-old UAE manpower licence with the certifications required to operate on critical energy infrastructure sites is far easier to buy than to build. Existing contracts with major international energy contractors, and an immediate opportunity to nearly double the deployed workforce under new demand.
- 18 years licensed, category 2 manpower company
- Immediate contracted demand to grow from 750 to 1,550+ workers
- Acquirer open to structured or hybrid financing at attractive terms
The buyer intends to automate operations across the acquired platform, using it as the operating base for a tech-enabled manpower contractor across GCC critical industries.
Seed round for an AI-native manpower contractor digitising industrial staffing across the GCC.
Manpower contracting in the region runs almost entirely offline, leaving an enormous opportunity to digitise and drive efficiency. The company already holds a multi-year anchor contract worth $13M per year and has established relationships in both sending and host countries.
- Secured ~1,200-worker, 3-year shipyard contract worth $13M p.a.
- Building an AI-native operating platform for a sector with no digital incumbent
- Independent of, but complementary to, an active acquisition of a licensed staffing operator
Funds build the tech product around the existing anchor contract, set up sourcing operations in sending countries, and pursue new contracts in critical industries across the GCC.
Award-winning 10-year-old Dubai beauty brand, profitable and positioned to scale beyond a single location.
A proven brand platform in a premium, accessible catchment with built-in social distribution and a loyal client base. The founder is the marketing engine and is open to staying on post-sale as marketing advisor, giving a buyer authentic ongoing brand amplification at near-zero customer acquisition cost.
- 10+ years of brand equity with a major media award
- Sole owner, clean cap table, no partnership complications
- Buying at the trough: revenue temporarily depressed by regional macro conditions
Doubling basket size and activating home services alone could take revenue to AED 1.2M+ without a second location. Franchise interest is already inbound, and a male salon expansion adds a second growth leg with zero cannibalization.
Quality-led Montessori early childhood center in central Dubai with an in-house clinic, a brand and turnaround opportunity.
Strong reputation and prime location paired with a dual licence: an approved nursery plus an in-house clinic with licensed therapists already on staff. The therapy revenue tap has not been turned on yet, an immediate unlock for a buyer underwriting the enrolment recovery.
- Full Montessori curriculum, documented and transferable, ages 0-6
- Parents' choice award and strong multi-year family loyalty
- Staff rationalisation alone saves AED 200K/year toward a ~AED 350K profit opportunity
A pivot to a children-of-determination-focused strategy, with early intervention and therapy as the primary product, would be a distinct positioning in the Dubai market with dedicated classes at premium monthly fees.
12-year-old top-rated trilingual nursery in a prime Dubai business district, priced at a point of maximum revenue compression.
The documented trilingual curriculum is the primary asset: differentiated in a market of single-language programs, refined over 12 years, regulator-approved, and already attracting inbound franchise enquiries. Enrollment was compressed by neighborhood construction that is now complete, so the external cause of the revenue dip no longer exists.
- Current-year revenue already running ahead of last year's monthly average
- Fee schedule already 20-40% above the historical peak-revenue pricing
- Grade A regulator rating cannot be purchased or fast-tracked
Three levers available from day one: activating a bus route (an estimated 3,000+ families added to the catchment), expanding the outdoor area to lift the licensed enrollment ceiling, and reaching full capacity at current fees, a revenue level the business has never achieved.
Bootstrapped, profitable tech-enabled mortgage platform originating residential loans in the UAE.
Proprietary 4-module mortgage operating system built in-house at under $1K/month operating cost: sales automation, automated bank form-filling, live command center, and AI use cases. 12 exclusive real estate agency partnerships and 8 active bank partnerships in a bank-agnostic model.
- 800+ qualified leads/month at under AED 70 CAC
- Advisor productivity ~30% above market average
- 33% of revenue from refinancing provides counter-cyclical resilience
Only ~20% of UAE property purchases are currently mortgage-financed in a market growing at 20%+ CAGR, with no dominant tech-enabled advisor among 50K+ annual originations. Abu Dhabi traction is early and growing.
Multi-category commercial bakery platform in Dubai raising growth capital at a discounted entry point.
One of the only fully integrated multi-category manufacturers in Dubai, producing bread, viennoiserie, pastry, and chocolate from a single certified 17,000 sq ft facility. HACCP and ISO certified with European equipment, dual fresh/frozen capability, and white-label manufacturing generating contracted revenue.
- 35% revenue CAGR FY2023-2025, +44% in FY2025
- 60% of upside already built in: idle capacity needs no new equipment, headcount, or leases
- Fair market valuation AED 8-12M implies a ~50% early-access discount
GCC export expansion into Saudi Arabia and Oman using existing frozen infrastructure, corporate gifting scale-up leveraging the chocolate line, and cloud kitchen partnerships generating predictable recurring revenue. Target of 143% growth FY2025 to FY2028.
Digital identity software and services company with recurring license revenue growing 31% into FY2026.
EBITDA nearly triples into FY2026E on business already secured, not new bookings: a lower cost base already in place (~AED 1M of annual cost removed with no loss of revenue capacity), a new partner contract flowing almost entirely to EBITDA, and a structural shift toward higher-margin license agreements.
- Normalized EBITDA grows from AED 1.07M to AED 2.53M in FY2026E
- Revenue heavily H2-weighted: ~EUR 1M of recurring revenue billed in December alone
- Blended license margin projected to rise from 6% to 15% by FY2030
As new 15-20% margin license agreements replace older low-margin contracts, blended margins keep expanding through FY2030. Planned reinvestment in marketing and sales development is already reflected in the FY2026E figures.
