The Middle East Facility Management Association (MEFMA) has announced that three of its member organisations have received top honours at the Global FM Awards of Excellence 2025, underlining the region’s growing influence in the international facility management (FM) sector.
The prestigious awards, presented by the Global FM Association, recognise outstanding achievements, innovative practices, and leadership in FM across the world. This year’s winners from the Middle East include the Expenditure and Projects Efficiency Authority (EXPRO) from Saudi Arabia and Darwish Interserve Facility Management from Qatar, both of whom received the coveted Gold Award. Berkeley Services UAE LLC was also recognised, earning the Highly Commended Award.
The awards were announced as part of the celebrations for World FM Day, an annual event that acknowledges the contributions of FM professionals globally and promotes awareness of the sector’s vital role in supporting quality of life and workplace performance.
Eng. Ali Alsuwaidi, Chairman of Global FM, praised the winners, stating: “The remarkable success of MEFMA members at the Global FM Awards highlights the region’s pioneering role in shaping the future of facility management. This achievement reflects not only their excellence and innovation but also an unwavering commitment to driving sustainability and operational excellence on a global scale.”

Our members’ success in these global awards reflects our commitment to empowering talents and organisations in the region, enabling them to lead on the global stage.”
MEFMA nominated the winning organisations as part of its ongoing mission to spotlight regional success stories and raise international awareness of Middle Eastern contributions to FM best practice. The Association continues to play a central role in shaping the FM landscape in the region through specialised training programmes, industry events, and thought leadership initiatives.
