The decision to set up the office follows the successful opening of new parts distribution centre in Dubai which, combined with similar centres in Dallas, London, Johannesburg, Singapore and Beijing, make more than $375 million in inventory available to HBC customers worldwide.

We view the Middle East – and Dubai in particular – as one of our key international growth markets and expect this to continue as the Arab nations continue to grow in importance in the global economy,” said Sean McGeough, HBC president, Europe, Middle East and Africa. “Therefore the new Dubai office will help us expand our presence in the region and capitalise on customer demand.”
