dubizzle Cars, the UAE's largest automotive marketplace, and Al-Futtaim Auto Centers, one of the UAE's largest automotive aftersales networks with a presence across all Emirates, have announced a strategic partnership to introduce scheduled maintenance packages for eligible vehicles purchased through dubizzle Cars.

The partnership was officially unveiled during a signing ceremony held at dubizzle Group's headquarters in Dubai CommerCity, attended by senior representatives from both organisations. By combining dubizzle Cars' extensive marketplace reach with Al-Futtaim Auto Centers' nationwide servicing expertise, the collaboration aims to deliver a more convenient, transparent, and hassle-free ownership experience for customers across the UAE.

The Service Contract is now available for eligible vehicles, enabling customers to add a pre-paid maintenance package at the time of purchase. Through Al-Futtaim Auto Centers' nationwide network of service centres, customers gain access to certified technicians, trusted quality  parts, mobile service, and pick-up & delivery solutions, providing greater convenience and peace of mind throughout their ownership journey.

Hossein Rafatnejad, Commercial Director at dubizzle Cars, said: “Consumer expectations have evolved significantly in recent years. Buying a car today is not only about finding the right vehicle, but also having confidence throughout the ownership journey. At dubizzle Cars, we are continually expanding the value we offer beyond the transaction. From vehicle inspections and market valuations to financing and insurance solutions, we have built a connected automotive ecosystem that helps customers make more informed decisions at every stage. Our partnership with Al-Futtaim Auto Centers is a natural extension of this approach, adding trusted scheduled maintenance from one of the UAE's leading automotive service providers. Together, we are making car ownership simpler, more transparent and more convenient.”

As the UAE's used car market continues to evolve, buyers increasingly expect integrated services that extend beyond the vehicle purchase itself. By combining convenience with trusted aftersales support, dubizzle Cars and Al-Futtaim Auto Centers are helping redefine the pre-owned vehicle ownership experience by making servicing and maintenance more trusted and accessible from day one.

Jean-Pascal Bourdier, Managing Director, Al-Futtaim Auto Centers, said: “This partnership brings together two trusted brands with a shared commitment to making vehicle ownership easier and more convenient.
