For your retail business
How Can Your Visitor Shop Earn More from Existing Footfall?
Visitors who have just crossed Dubai Creek, kayaked through mangroves, or explored the dunes already have a place they want to remember. Offer a hand-painted version in your existing shop to create an additional purchase opportunity from that visit.
We paint; you focus on selling
You choose the views and approve the work; our studio handles the painting. Add the range to your existing display without recruiting painters or setting up your own production team. Start with a sample and a small order, then reorder the views customers choose.
Trade pricing, your retail price
Buy directly from our studio at trade prices and set your own selling price. Mixed designs count together for trade pricing, so you can build a varied range while planning your buying budget. Compare the full landed cost with your intended retail price to choose a margin that works for your shop.
How to assess the price spread: as a planning example, a selling price of 3 times the full landed unit cost leaves 2 times that cost as gross profit before shop operating expenses—a 66.7% gross margin. This is illustrative arithmetic, not a quoted price or a sales forecast. Use your actual delivered quote and achievable selling price.

Local Views for UAE Souvenir Paintings
Liwa dunes: a desert journey to remember
The Liwa area in Abu Dhabi’s Al Dhafra region opens onto the Empty Quarter. Long dune ridges and warm evening shadows can carry the memory of a desert excursion without relying on a crowded skyline.
Coastal and city memories
Abu Dhabi’s mangroves and Dubai Creek offer a contrasting water-based collection. Keeping the destination name with each view helps visitors choose their own experience, rather than an anonymous picture of the Emirates.
Explore the destination: UAE visitor and heritage information.
More places your customers may want to take home
Dubai Creek and Al Fahidi
Abra boats, waterfront reflections, and wind-tower lanes offer different keepsakes for customers who explored Old Dubai.
Abu Dhabi mangroves
Water channels and green canopies can connect a painting with a kayaking or nature excursion.
Al Ain Oasis and Jebel Hafeet
Palm-lined paths and rocky mountain views give inland shops subjects that reflect their own visitor route.
Hatta mountain scenery
Choose a reference with the mountain outline and water your visitors remember; a wider composition can suit the open landscape.
Destination photographs illustrate possible subjects. You can commission these places or any local view your customers love, using reference images you own or have permission to reproduce.
03 / Build the shop collection
Planning Your UAE Wholesale Art Range
For a business supplying several UAE shops, we suggest a shared set of sizes with location-specific images. A desert excursion shop might lead with rolled panoramas; a city gift counter could offer smaller framed water scenes. You can combine those designs in one wholesale inquiry.
We suggest using photographs you own or have permission to reproduce. We can help with the crop and composition, and will ask for your approval before painting at our Shenzhen studio.
Choose views for each shop
A Liwa excursion shop could start with dunes and desert light; a Dubai gift counter could focus on creek views; an Abu Dhabi visitor shop could explore mangrove scenes. These are collection ideas to adapt to your location and visitors.
Keep sizes consistent across branches
You can use the same image sizes across several shops while choosing a different view for each location. List the design, size, finish, and quantity for each branch so we can discuss packing labels and delivery arrangements in the quote.
Start small, then reorder a favourite
A separate sample order lets you review the painting and proposed finish before ordering a larger range. Later, you can reorder a single popular view using its earlier order reference or a photograph, with the new size, quantity, and required arrival date.
For example, three views with two paintings each make a six-piece opening selection. You can adjust the selection to your shop; trade pricing starts at one piece.
04 / Make it easy to take home
UAE Souvenir Canvas Sizes, Packing and Delivery
| Rolled canvas | We leave an additional 5 cm of blank canvas on every side, outside the painted image, for stretching or framing at home. If you would like more, please let us know before painting. Heavy texture is better kept stretched or framed. |
|---|---|
| Small framed keepsakes | Choose the image dimensions you want for your shop. Every painting is made to your requested size, with rolled, stretched, or framed options. We confirm the overall framed and packed dimensions in the quote. |
| Check the packed size | Image sizes do not include the frame or protective packing. We will confirm the proposed packed dimensions with you. Airline baggage allowances vary, so no format is universally cabin-approved. |
05 / Plan your order
Plan Production and Delivery to Your UAE Shop
Work back from your shop date
Tell us when the paintings need to be ready on your shelves. A typical 21–50-piece run takes 15–20 business days of production; 51–100 pieces usually take 20–30. Detailed work, oil, and special formats can take longer. Sample review and shipping take additional time. We confirm the schedule for your actual order in the quote.
Confirm delivery for your address
We work with more than 200 logistics companies to compare options for your budget and timing. Express can suit a smaller or urgent order; sea freight can be considered for a larger shipment when time allows. Share the emirate, full delivery address, and postcode if applicable so we can check the route and shipping estimate.
Most destinations are DDP, but the terms for your UAE address must be confirmed in the quote. We will explain the quoted shipping charges, duties and taxes included, and any local customs exceptions.
Review the quote and finished paintings
Rolled, stretched, and framed options are quoted separately. Payment is usually a 50% deposit, with the balance after final approval and before shipping. Progress photos and video, followed by daylight photographs of the finished paintings, help you review the work before it leaves the studio.

UAE Hand-Painted Souvenir Art: Wholesale FAQs
Can our UAE branches stock different local paintings?
Yes, we would be happy to prepare different image selections for your branches. For example, your Liwa outlet could carry dune scenes while your Dubai shop carries creek views. You can share the quantity and finish needed for each location, and we will explain packing and delivery options in the quote.
How much blank canvas comes with a rolled UAE painting?
You choose the painted image size. We include an additional 5 cm on each side, outside the painted image. If your customers or framer would prefer a different allowance, please let us know before production; we would be happy to discuss it.
Can we approve the composition, colours, and details before placing a bulk order?
Yes. You can start with a separate single-piece sample order. Share your reference photograph and point out the local features and colours you would like us to preserve. We will help with the crop and composition and ask for your approval before painting the sample. You can then review the sample before deciding on a larger collection. Each canvas is hand painted, so individual brushwork can vary.
Are the paintings fully hand painted or printed with added texture?
They are painted by hand directly on premium linen, with no image printed underneath. Acrylic is standard, and oil is available on request. Tell us your preferred medium and finish before the sample is prepared.
Can we order a sample before buying a collection?
Yes. A sample is a separate single-piece order, so you can review the painting, size, and proposed finish before deciding on a larger collection. Tell us which view you would like to start with and whether you prefer rolled canvas or a framed painting.
Can different UAE views count together for trade pricing?
Yes. Mixed designs count together for trade pricing, which starts at one piece and improves at 6 and 21 pieces. Send the quantity for each view, size, and finish. Rolled, stretched, and framed options are priced separately in the quote.
How long does production take, and is shipping included in that time?
A typical 21–50-piece run takes 15–20 business days of production; 51–100 pieces usually take 20–30. These are production estimates, not arrival times. Sample review, shipping, detailed work, oil, and special formats can add time. Share your required shop date so we can confirm a suitable schedule.
Can we reorder only one view for one of our UAE shops?
Yes. You can reorder a single view without repeating the full collection. Send an earlier order reference or a photograph, along with the size, finish, quantity, delivery address, and desired arrival date. Individual brushwork varies because each canvas is hand painted.
Does a UAE quote include delivery, duties, and taxes?
We confirm the delivery terms for your address in the quote, including the quoted shipping charges, duties and taxes included, and any local customs exceptions. Most destinations are DDP; please use the confirmed terms for your order when planning your landed cost.
Can we choose our own painting sizes for the shop?
Yes. Every painting is made to your requested image dimensions. Tell us the width, height, orientation, and preferred finish. We can help adapt the crop and confirm the overall framed and packed dimensions so the range fits your display and retail price plan.
How can hand-painted souvenirs add revenue without our own painting team?
Offer visitors a hand-painted memory of UAE through your existing shop. We handle the painting, while you choose the designs, set the retail price, and sell the finished products. Start with a small range, compare your landed costs with your selling prices, and reorder the views your customers choose.
