Under the leadership of Lootah, Imdaad focused on further deepening its presence in its home market of the UAE and expanding its footprint in the wider GCC with the objective of capitalizing on the opportunities presented by the region’s continuing infrastructure investments and real estate development.

Lauding his collegaues, Lootah said: "I would like to extend my deepest gratitude to them for their unwavering commitment, dedication and hard work which had been instrumental to the company’s enduring success and without whom this achievement would not have been possible."

With a healthy year-on-year client retention rate of 95 per cent, Imdaad has steadily grown its market share and client base over the past year, said the statement from the company.

The company won several new projects and renewed many existing contracts during the first three quarters of 2018 with a total value of nearly Dh500 million, it added.-TradeArabia News Service
