Our verdict
On our criteria, Meydan FZ wins for the most common profile. A central Dubai address and fast licensing: the strongest all-rounder for a first company.
That said, CommerCity remains the right call if: online retailers holding uae inventory, regional d2c brands. Headline price should not decide this alone — visa quota and banking reception usually matter more.
