Straight answers about who we are, what we distribute, and how to work with us. If your question is not here, ask us directly — we answer every message.
For brand owners & manufacturers
The questions we are asked most often by brands outside the region who are looking for a route into the UAE and the GCC.
We are a brand looking for a distributor in the UAE or GCC. How do we start?
Send us a message through the enquiry form and choose Distribution as the enquiry type, or email topgear@abhgt.com directly.
It helps if your first message includes your product category, your current markets, whether you already have any presence in the GCC, and what kind of arrangement you are looking for — exclusive distribution, non-exclusive supply, or a market test. We will route it to the right person and come back to you.
What does Top Gear actually do for a brand it takes on?
Three things, which we treat as one job rather than three:
- Distribution — importing, clearing, warehousing and moving product across the UAE and GCC, and supplying the retailers we serve.
- E-commerce and retail — getting the brand listed and selling on the region's leading online marketplaces and retail platforms, with support that continues after the sale.
- Brand building — range planning for this market, rich product catalogues, content, reviews and after-sales, so the brand builds real equity here rather than just shipping units.
The distinction matters: plenty of importers will move your boxes. Fewer will build your brand in the market.
Which product categories do you take on?
Bicycles, educational toys, ride-ons and scooters, baby and kids gear, and related accessories. In short: products for children and families.
If your product sits close to those categories but is not exactly one of them, it is still worth asking — the fit matters more than the label.
Do you take exclusive distributorships?
Yes. We hold exclusive GCC distributorships for international brands alongside non-exclusive supply arrangements, and we operate our own in-house brands. Which structure makes sense depends on the category, the volume and how much market-building the brand needs, and it is one of the first things worth discussing.
What retail and e-commerce reach can you offer?
Our brands are available across the region's leading online marketplaces and retail platforms — among them Amazon, Noon, Carrefour, Mumzworld, FirstCry, Cycology, London Bikes, Active Fitness, Marah Kids.
These are live, running sales channels with warehousing, fulfilment and after-sales already in place, not relationships we would need to build from scratch for a new brand.
Which markets do you cover?
The United Arab Emirates and the wider GCC. Our distribution, warehousing and retail relationships are built for this region specifically.
We are outside the region — EU, US, India or China. Does that matter?
Not at all. Working with international manufacturers who want a route into the GCC is a core part of what we do, and where a good share of our enquiries come from. Distance is a logistics question, not an obstacle.
What do you need from us to evaluate a partnership?
To have a useful first conversation: your catalogue or line sheet, indicative trade pricing, MOQs and lead times, any existing GCC presence or prior distributor history, and any certification your products already carry.
Please do not send commercially sensitive material through the website form — get in touch first and we will agree a proper route, with a confidentiality agreement where that is appropriate.
About the company
Who we are, and where we come from.
Who is Top Gear General Trading L.L.C.?
Top Gear General Trading L.L.C. is a Dubai-based distribution house for toys, bicycles and ride-ons. We import, warehouse and distribute across the UAE and GCC, operate our own in-house brands, hold exclusive regional distributorships for international brands, and sell through the region's retail and e-commerce platforms.
When was it founded, and who owns it?
Top Gear was incorporated in Dubai in 2014 as the distribution arm of the Abbas Bin Haider (ABH) Group for cycling, toys and ride-ons. It is part of that group, which is a UAE family business.
What is the Abbas Bin Haider Group?
The Abbas Bin Haider Group is a UAE family business established in 1979. Over four decades it grew into a multi-sector trading house that today represents more than 40 brands across categories including hardware, building materials, tools and accessories. Top Gear is the group's distributor for cycling, toys and ride-ons.
How large is the portfolio?
More than 15 brands and over 5,000 SKUs across five product categories, backed by 45+ years of group trading heritage. Those figures are rounded and grow over time.
Where are you based?
Office No. 13, 14 Road, 11 Al Budoor Bld., Baniyas Square, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. You can reach us on +971 4 341 3396 or at topgear@abhgt.com.
What is your mission?
To be the region's most trusted distribution partner — bringing quality brands to the UAE and GCC with honest pricing, dependable supply, and service that does not end at the sale.
Brands and products
What we carry, and what is ours.
Which brands do you work with?
Our portfolio includes Mideer, Beleduc, Vaux, Oddysea, Mogoo, Clixo, PlayShifu, Whimsy, Alldoro, Aero and Rastar — among others, and growing. It is a mix of in-house labels, exclusive distributorships and trusted international names.
Do you have your own brands?
Yes. Alongside the international brands we distribute, the group operates in-house brands — among them Mogoo, a bicycle brand covering mountain, road, city, kids and folding bikes, and Whimsy, a children's bicycle brand. Both are brands of the Abbas Bin Haider Group and are distributed by Top Gear across the region.
Owning brands as well as distributing them means we build brands from the inside as a matter of routine, not only when a partner asks us to.
What product categories do you carry?
Five: bicycles; educational toys; ride-ons and scooters; baby and kids gear; and accessories.
Retailers and shoppers
For stores that want to stock our brands, and for the families who buy them.
I run a shop. How do I become a stockist?
Use the enquiry form and select Become a stockist, or email topgear@abhgt.com. Tell us where you are, what you currently stock and which of our categories interest you.

Something is wrong with a product I bought. Who do I contact?
