Emrill sees increase in residential occupancy across its managed leased communities with some reaching over 98%
Between 2022 and April 2025, multiple residential communities supported by Emrill's facilities management services achieved occupancy increases of up to 29 per cent, with some reaching a 98 per cent occupancy rate. These gains reflect the value of Emrill's structured outcomes-led approach to facilities management and the impact of its continued investment in service innovation.
During the same period, Emrill expanded its residential portfolio from 157 communities in 2023 to 254 by 2025, marking an increase of over 62 per cent. This growth has been supported by the delivery of comprehensive facilities management solutions, including mechanical, electrical and plumbing services, cleaning, lifeguarding, manned security and specialist services. Emrill has also operated in a managing agent capacity across key contracts, further strengthening integration and service accountability.
Stuart Harrison, CEO at Emrill, said: 'The increase in occupancy across our managed communities demonstrates how high-quality facilities management services can directly contribute to better residential outcomes. Our teams have remained focused on creating clean, safe and well-maintained environments where residents feel supported and secure.
Service delivery has been enhanced through a series of digital innovations. Emrill implemented live productivity dashboards across residential portfolios, providing site teams with real-time performance visibility. Preventive maintenance processes were digitised, replacing manual trackers with automated systems aligned to contractual key performance indicators and service-level agreements. These improvements have been driven by Techsphere, Emrill's integrated digital platform designed to enhance facilities management processes, enabling data-led decision-making, remote asset monitoring and predictive maintenance across multiple portfolios. In one development, Emrill successfully transitioned to a new service framework, achieving emergency response times of 10 to 20 minutes, with incidents resolved or contained within three hours. Urgent and routine requests were also completed within agreed timeframes.
Customer satisfaction has also improved significantly. Over a three-year period, Emrill achieved consistent year-on-year increases in satisfaction scores. In 2025, 97.7 per cent of residents across selected communities reported being extremely satisfied with facilities management services. These results highlight the impact of aligning operational performance with proactive resident engagement and continuous service improvement.
Harrison added: 'Our teams on the ground understand the importance of creating great places to live. By investing in training, technology and people-first delivery, we've been able to support developers and owners' associations in establishing communities where occupancy remains consistently high. These results are not coincidental. They are the product of data, discipline and a shared commitment to service excellence.'
Emrill remains focused on delivering measurable outcomes across its residential portfolio, supporting clients in achieving sustained high occupancy through responsive service delivery and digital integration.

Jordan: ACC issues 22,674 certificates of origin in 7 months
AMMAN — The number of certificates of origin issued by the Amman Chamber of Commerce (ACC) for exporting goods increased by 5.1 per cent during the first seven months of the year, compared to the same period last year. According to statistical data obtained by the Jordan News Agency, Petra, the number of certificates of origin issued by the ACC during the January-July period of 2025 reached 22,674, up from 21,566 during the same period in the previous year. The data also showed a 4.4 per cent decrease in the total value of these certificates, which fell to JD763 million from JD798 million for the same period last year. Iraq topped the list of countries importing from Jordan in terms of the value of certificates of origin, with goods worth some JD349 million and 1,965 certificates issued. It was followed by Saudi Arabia with JD61 million and 5,165 certificates. Egypt came next with JD54 million and 566 certificates, followed by Syria with JD46 million and 2,462 certificates, and Switzerland with about JD44 million and 12 certificates. These five countries were among the highest in terms of both value and number of certificates. In terms of the types of products exported, foreign-origin goods (re-exported items) accounted for JD386 million. Industrial products reached JD149 million, agricultural goods JD100 million, Arab-origin products JD61 million, while the remainder covered other types of goods. A certificate of origin is a document used in international trade to certify that goods in a particular shipment were produced, manufactured, or processed in a specific country. Customs authorities use this document to determine the eligibility of goods, verify their origin and apply appropriate tariffs. ACC issues certificates of origin for Jordanian agricultural and animal products, raw natural resources, re-exported foreign goods and foreign goods purchased locally under certain conditions. The chamber also issues certificates for Jordanian industrial products upon the exporter's request, based on an original factory invoice certified by an industrial chamber and a duly authenticated original certificate of origin issued by an industrial chamber confirming that the goods are of Jordanian origin. © Copyright The Jordan Times.

Dubai Centre for Family Businesses introduces three new advisory services
The Dubai Centre for Family Businesses, which operates under the umbrella of Dubai Chambers, has launched three new specialised advisory services to support the sustainable growth of family businesses. The initiative aims to strengthen the governance of family-owned enterprises operating in Dubai, enhancing their future readiness and enabling them to navigate the evolving economic landscape, overcome challenges, and capitalise on promising opportunities. The new services reflect the Dubai Centre for Family Businesses' ongoing commitment to enhancing the economic contribution of family businesses in support of Dubai's future development plans. The centre aims to strengthen the competitiveness of this vital sector by safeguarding its interests, streamlining operations, and investing in leadership development to ensure long-term sustainability. H.E. Mohammad Ali Rashed Lootah, President and CEO of Dubai Chambers, commented: 'Family businesses remain a vital engine of growth, diversification, and innovation within Dubai's economy. Ensuring their continued success is essential to enhancing the emirate's competitiveness and driving sustainable long-term growth. The Dubai Centre for Family Businesses is committed to empowering these companies to navigate economic developments and embrace global best practices, which contributes towards strengthening the local private sector and reinforcing Dubai's position as a global hub for trade and investment.' The first new service is the Current-State Assessment & Family Constitution Review, which offers an in-depth evaluation of a family business's current governance framework. This includes a thorough review of existing Family Constitutions, leveraging the centre's automated Family Business Governance Assessment Tool to evaluate the maturity of their governance processes against regulatory requirements, leading industry practices, and global standards. Complementing this assessment, individual interviews with key family and business stakeholders are conducted to identify any gaps and challenges within existing structures, providing actionable recommendations for improvement. This service assesses governance frameworks, identifies gaps and risks, encourages alignment among stakeholders, and provides tailored recommendations for enhanced governance and long-term growth. The second service, Family Constitution Drafting, provides a strategic roadmap for family businesses, outlining policies, governance structures, and decision-making processes crucial for long-term sustainability. The centre will assist in drafting these vital documents, drawing insights from interviews with family members and key stakeholders. Through facilitated workshops and discussions, the service ensures alignment and buy-in from all family members, designing a document that captures their collective vision and values, alongside clear nomination, eligibility criteria, and decision-making processes relevant to the organisation's governing bodies. This service defines roles and responsibilities, formalises shared vision and values, fosters open dialogue, and establishes clear rules to prevent future conflicts. The third new service is the Family Office Blueprint service, which guides families in establishing a private platform dedicated to managing their wealth, investments, and personal affairs. The centre facilitates workshops designed to enhance understanding of Family Offices, supporting families in defining their specific objectives, the range of services it will provide, and the necessary staffing requirements. This service clarifies the purpose, scope, and strategic goals of a Family Office, explores the full range of services for wealth management and legacy planning, and identifies the key skills and roles required for an effective Family Office structure.
