A partner on the ground in the UAE.

Katana works in the UAE in partnership with The Creed — The Creed Originals Uniforms Trading L.L.C., a DED-licensed uniforms and corporate apparel company based in Dubai.

For GCC clients that means a local point of contact, physical samples you can hold, and delivery inside the UAE — while manufacturing runs in Tiruppur at Indian cost and scale.

  • Local consultation and sampling in Dubai
  • Uniform and corporate apparel expertise in the UAE market
  • Delivery and coordination within the UAE
  • Manufacturing, QC and export handled by Katana in India
