Abu Dhabi Investment Office (ADIO) in collaboration with 7X has launched ADEED, the new UAE Supply Chain Support Platform.
The platform is designed to strengthen business continuity across Abu Dhabi and the UAE’s with supply chain and trade sectors as the regional economic landscape evolves.
ADEED combines ADIO’s market insight and business support capabilities to provide visibility and support towards the movement of materials, industrial inputs linked to exports and inputs, for the purpose of safeguarding trade flows and supply chain continuity.
7X will respond to business supply chain needs captured through ADEED with coordinated operational solutions, enabling support across air, road and sea linehaul, domestically and internationally, in addition to fulfilment-related services.
Alongside ADIO and 7X, the ADEED strategic partners include the Abu Dhabi Department of Economic Development (ADDED), Abu Dhabi Chamber of Commerce & Industry (ADCCI), Abu Dhabi Customs, and Abu Dhabi Quality & Conformity Council (ADQCC).
The platform uses AI to provide actionable insights into supply chain and trade operations, enabling businesses and government entities to navigate processes efficiently.
By structuring requests, identifying gaps in supply chain needs, and connecting users with the correct trade and logistics expertise, the platform seeks to advance informed decision-making and operational continuity.
Challenges are raised by the ADCCI Trade Working Group, with every request monitored and orchestrated with an ecosystem of coordinated partners who facilitate the right support to ensure trade continuity.
ADIO’s Trade & Industry team supports businesses in identifying and connecting with international and domestic suppliers, alongside the 7X team orchestrating the logistics and transport ecosystem to ensure goods move efficiently and reliably.
7X group chief executive officer, Tariq Al Wahedi, said: “ADEED reflects exactly the kind of public-private collaboration that builds long-term supply chain resilience, where public sector leadership and operational capability come together to support business continuity in a practical and timely way.
“Through our sector-wide network of strategic partners, 7X is committed to enabling responsive, coordinated solutions that keep supply chains moving, and to working alongside ADIO in ways that reinforce Abu Dhabi and the UAE’s standing as a resilient, globally connected trade hub.
“Building on this foundation, we aim to have ADEED extend its reach nationwide, bringing this support to businesses across the emirates.”
