Dubai-licensed recruitment and manpower supply agency serving clients across the UAE with additional activity in Saudi Arabia from last 10years. Generalist sourcing across healthcare, hospitality and blue-collar roles from an established South Asian supplier network, earning on each successful placement. Low-overhead, remotely manageable operation. Indicative asking price: AED 2.4 million (negotiable; ≈ USD 653,500).
Generalist recruitment and manpower supply across multiple industries rather than a single niche. Typical placements include nurses and healthcare personnel, restaurant and hospitality staff, cleaners and general labour, and other blue-collar manpower, plus ad-hoc senior and managerial searches tailored to each client's requirements. Candidates are sourced primarily from India and Nepal, with established supplier networks in Sri Lanka, the Philippines and other South Asian markets where visa regulations permit. End-to-end service covers candidate sourcing and screening, skills and experience matching, candidate interviews, visa and travel coordination, and follow-up through onboarding and the initial payment cycle. Revenue is earned per successful placement — approximately 7–8% margins on bulk manpower supply and up to ~20% on managerial and senior placements. Assignments often tie to contracts of around 11 months, and new vacancies generate recurring placement opportunities.
Clients span multiple industries across the UAE, with additional activity in Saudi Arabia — healthcare (nurses and clinical personnel), restaurants and hospitality, and general/blue-collar manpower. The business holds existing client, vendor and candidate relationships, including recently secured clients with future placement potential. Supply-side, it works with long-standing, government-registered overseas manpower suppliers — several with more than ten years of operating history and substantial candidate databases. Market context: the UAE staffing market is expanding, with permanent staffing holding roughly 60% of the market in 2024 (https://www.psmarketresearch.com/market-analysis/uae-staffing-service-market) and demand shifting toward skilled and specialised talent alongside continued general-labour needs (https://workforce.ae/future-of-manpower-supply-trends/).
Low-overhead, remotely manageable operation running from a virtual office in Dubai under a recruitment/manpower business licence. Day-to-day delivery is handled by approximately three to four remote recruiters; the owner leads business development and client acquisition. The company maintains available visa capacity for future employees and works with established, government-registered overseas manpower suppliers, some with 10+ years of operating history and large candidate databases. After approximately 15–16 years in the industry, the owner is stepping back and is willing to provide approximately five to six months of post-sale handover: client and supplier introductions, operational guidance, and continuity support with recruiters and active business relationships.
Quick wins: (1) convert recently secured client relationships into recurring placement pipelines; (2) deepen the Saudi Arabia channel, where demand for imported manpower is strong; (3) shift mix toward managerial and senior placements, which carry margins of up to ~20% versus 7–8% on bulk supply; (4) activate available visa capacity to serve larger bulk orders. Bigger plays: (1) formalise a corporate desk targeting healthcare and hospitality groups with annual manpower plans; (2) expand sourcing corridors into additional South Asian and nearby markets as visa regulations permit; (3) add permanent-search and executive-search services on top of volume manpower supply; (4) with the appropriate local structure, run the platform remotely and scale without fixed premises costs.
