Dubai, UAE – In 1989, two imaginative men, namely Mr. Ahmed Kahzad Abulhasan Ahmadi and a little garment store, began in Deira, the heart of Dubai, by Mr. Saleh Madhad Saleh Buqaraah Alhemeiri. Little did they know that their dream of creating good clothes would lead them to Dikochi, a brand that would become the very identity of Dubai as it grew and evolved.
Dikochi, from a small garment shop, has gradually evolved into the leading name in the apparel industry of the city. With a history of over 35 years of being successful, Dikochi is known for quality and affordability coupled with innovation, growing its footprint, and creatively shaping the Dubai textile market with premium products and incredible deals for men, women, and children.

Having become most prominent in the apparel sector, Dikochi came into existence from a joint vision of the founders, who saw potential in cloth and thread and indeed in their very rapidly developing metropolis. Now in their thirties, their values of quality, integrity, and innovation have been strengthened by the rising star of Dubai as a global center of trade and innovation.
“Dikochi has always been much more than garments,” said Mr. Ahmed Kahzad Abulhasan Ahmadi, Managing Director of Dikochi. “From the very beginning, we had in mind actually to build not just an enterprise but a way of marking the city’s growth; a monument that stands for the hope of two friends who believed in the potential of this land and its people.”
Established in the Jebel Ali Free Zone (JAFZA), the company experienced its initiation back in 1989. What started out as a small venture has now grown into a modern-day, 60,000-square-foot establishment producing over 100,000 pieces of garments annually for the GCC, U.S., and European markets, including menswear, womenswear, and childrenswear apparel. With a staff of over 500 skilled professionals and a management team still bearing the founders’ vision and unyielding commitment towards excellence, the company forms one of the paths to their success.
Besides production, DIKL Retail, the retail arm of Dikochi, has effectively marketed branded fashion and lifestyle products at affordable prices. These outlets, which stock all sorts of things from apparel and abayas to personal care items and homeware, are the choice of quality-conscious customers.
“We feel proud that we are able to offer branded fashion at everyday prices,”. Our intention is to create a curated shopping experience that appeals to a varied clientele irrespective of age, sex, or lifestyle,” said Mr. Amirali Sofian Tazeh, Dikochi General Manager.
Dikochi, being a company with integrity and human capital as pillars, continues to invest in innovation, technology, and its people, ensuring an ethical route and customer-centric service as the way ahead to new markets.
“We are deeply committed to our people and customers. As much as we always maintain our standard of excellence, we take pride in the trust of the people who have sustained our brand.”, said Mr. Saleh Madhad Saleh Buqaraah Alhemeiri, Director of Dikochi.

The future of Dikochi is successful, as the company seeks to forge new partnerships and further establish its international presence. The story of friendship, vision, and legacy remains a strong testimony of what can be achieved when resolve and foresight come together.
