Edge Group to focus on defence trading
Mansour AlMulla, MD and CEO of Edge, said the company is rapidly growing as its focus on the development of defence trading.
“Incorporating Gradeone into the group is an advantageous and logical decision for both companies, allowing us to further perfect our solutions, both in military and safety service domains. It also reinforces the company’s strategy of developing successful partnerships and broadening our own supply chain and trading capabilities in the long term,” he said.
In addition to defence trading and services, Gradeone specialises in providing various solutions to the military and defence sectors, including army, special forces, navy, air force, law enforcement, and search and rescue services. It also provides sporting and hunting equipment, supplies and accessories.
Khalifa Al Ali, managing director of Gradeone, said he was confident that joining forces with the group will open new possibilities for mutually beneficial cooperation, as well as help the company improve its capabilities. “We are delighted to continue contributing to regional safety with our mutual local and international partners.”
