Oman open for business with Britain as GCC trade deal nears – The National

Oman is open for business with the UK as the Gulf state reimagines growth, streamlines its business procedures and creates a pro-enterprise environment to attract British investment, according to Mohammed Al Yousef, the country’s Minister of Commerce, Industry & Investment Promotion.

Mr Yousef said Oman is keen to support the ambitions of British investors looking to inject capital in the country in sectors as varied as clean energy, mining, manufacturing, logistics, tourism and fisheries.

Ties between the two countries are growing stronger amid progress in free trade agreement discussions between Britain and the GCC this year.
