Giving back to Dubai’s community
A successful trade carries a responsibility to the city that built it. TEXMAS members give back — to the community, to those in need, and to a more sustainable future for textiles.
Generosity is woven into the culture of Dubai, and into the way its merchants do business. For the textile trade — among the oldest commercial communities in the city — giving back is not a programme but a habit: supporting the people and causes that share in the trade’s success.
The trade has always depended on relationships and trust — between merchants, with their workers, and with the wider community. That same spirit guides how members contribute beyond the balance sheet.
As an apex body, TEXMAS encourages its members to act responsibly: to look after their people, to support those in need, and to trade in ways that are fair and sustainable.
Community first
In Dubai’s long tradition of giving, our merchants support the community that has made the trade possible — quietly and consistently.
Care for those in need
From charitable drives to support in difficult times, members contribute to causes that help families and workers across the city.
Toward sustainable cloth
Encouraging responsible sourcing and less waste as the textile industry moves toward a more sustainable future.
Skills & livelihoods
Backing a trade that provides direct and indirect employment to tens of thousands of people across Dubai and the region.
“The pursuit of excellence is part and parcel of the Dubai DNA — and so is the duty to give back.”
