Dulsco

What Dulsco does

Dulsco Group is a privately held UAE-based integrated services company headquartered in Al Quoz, Dubai, founded in 1935 and operating today through four core divisions: Dulsco People (workforce supply and outsourcing across aviation, construction, oil & gas, logistics, and more), Dulsco Environment (waste collection, recycling, hazardous waste handling, and industrial cleaning supported by Material Recovery, Refuse Derived Fuel, Construction & Demolition recycling, and Liquid Treatment facilities), Parisima (talent solutions including RPO, permanent placement, and contract staffing, acquired 2022), and Advance Global Recruitment (AGR, energy recruitment for oil, gas, and renewables across 70 countries, acquired 2023). A fifth subsidiary, Dulsco Health, provides occupational and outpatient medical services to employees, corporate clients, and walk-in patients.

The group serves approximately 3,699+ clients with 24,996+ employees across the UAE, the UK (Edinburgh and Aberdeen), the USA (Houston), Saudi Arabia (Riyadh), and Guyana, generating revenue primarily through managed services contracts for workforce deployment and waste management, supplemented by professional services fees from recruitment and RPO engagements. Dulsco's go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting government entities, semi-government bodies, and large private-sector clients via long-term B2B contracts; examples include a five-year workforce solutions agreement with Etihad Airport Services covering 30 job categories across multiple UAE airports, and a strategic energy-sector collaboration with TotalEnergies Marketing Middle East signed in May 2025.

Dulsco's technology stack combines physical infrastructure (RDF plant, MRF, C&D recycling, LTF, and a 7,600 sqm Training Academy at Dubai South) with operational software including GreenRoad Telematics for AI-assisted fleet safety and Connected Safety Net for digital incident reporting. Pricing is quote-based and negotiated per client. The company is founder/family-controlled, with no disclosed external funding, and has scaled primarily through operating cash flow and targeted acquisitions under Group CEO David Stockton, who reports 3.5x revenue growth during his tenure.
