Our verdict

On our criteria, DAFZA wins for the most common profile. Airside logistics for high-value, low-volume goods — pharma, electronics, aviation parts.

That said, KEZAD remains the right call if: manufacturing and assembly, heavy logistics. Headline price should not decide this alone — visa quota and banking reception usually matter more.
