The Ras Al Khaimah Economic Zone (RAKEZ) is the UAE's largest free zone outside Dubai and Abu Dhabi by registered company count, formed in 2017 from the merger of RAK FTZ and RAKIA. It combines budget-priced licences with genuine industrial plots and warehouses — a rare combination that puts it on the shortlist for both solo founders and manufacturers.
