The Dubai Transport Company was established in 1947 and soon developed into DUTCO Group of Companies including construction, trading, manufacturing, oil, gas, real estate, and hospitality - JA Resorts & Hotels. We are proud to celebrate 40 years of operation in the United Arab Emirates this year, having first opened both the JA Hatta Fort Hotel in the Hajar Mountains and JA Beach Hotel at Jebel Ali Beach back in 1981. 40 years later, our homegrown hospitality group has gone from strength to strength, now featuring 10 distinct properties across the UAE and the Indian Ocean.
