who we are

Edinburgh Commerce Ltd operates in Scotland, UK and Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. We exist to create and strengthen connections between Scotland and the Gulf region through business, training, trade and tourism — helping to establish business links and intercultural understanding through industry-related training programmes.

By delivering a first-class service, our team helps professionals, students and clients from GCC countries to establish strong relationships in Scotland, at a time when both regions are experiencing economic diversification.

We have expertise in the CIVIL SECTOR in both regions in areas including ARCHITECTURE and PROJECT MANAGEMENT but our services provide opportunities within a number of sectors and we believe there is a scope to explore new markets between the areas and promote positive bilateral relations.

our market place

Over the last 5 years, Saudi Arabia has undergone unprecedented reforms in public sector operations. These changes are having a positive impact on the economy and society as a whole, laying the foundations for a successful future.

In this time, Saudi has opened to the world, unlocking opportunities for growth and investment, building and launching platforms for future growth, whilst continually improving quality of life.

The Saudi 2030 vision continues to transform the country, enabling citizens and businesses to realise their fullest potential. By developing and unlocking new sectors, Saudi is diversifying the economy and creating an attractive environment for local and foreign business and investment.

Our aim is to support this vision by providing Saudi professionals and students with training opportunities in Scotland that will diversify and upskill the Saudi workforce, bringing new and innovative practices into the country.
