The UAE's robotics market is on a strong upward path, with projections indicating a market volume of around $360.10 million by 2029, representing a growth rate of 11.02%. This trend is part of a larger regional movement, as the robotics market across the Middle East is expected to reach $2.84 billion by 2029, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.74%. This growth underscores the rising adoption of robotic solutions in various sectors, particularly in warehouse operations, where businesses are tackling labor shortages while enhancing fulfilment quality and safety, optimizing space utilization, and increasing throughput.

Alexei Filippov, Head of Global Business Development, Yango Robotics, commented: “We were excited to demonstrate how automation can transform warehouses and logistics at GITEX this year. Many businesses still rely on manual processes, resulting in slow order fulfilment, higher costs, and increased safety risks. Our robotics solutions are game-changers, working collaboratively with humans to address these pain points by improving operational efficiency, enhancing inventory accuracy, and minimizing labour-intensive tasks that lead to workplace injuries. As the global market shifts toward automation, it isn’t just a competitive advantage, it’s quickly becoming a necessity for staying ahead in the modern supply chain.”
