Construction materials, sourced and followed through.
Qotera is a sourcing-support service for construction buyers — strongest in MEP systems, ready across general building materials. Send a messy request; we turn it into a complete, quotable RFQ, route it to the right established UAE supplier, and follow up until you have an answer. You order and pay the supplier directly, exactly as today.
Send a BOQ, a WhatsApp material list, a site photo, a pipe/fitting schedule, an urgent replacement — even an incomplete RFQ. Messy is fine; that's the point.
Strongest in MEP systems.
Ready across building materials.
Our deepest lines are the European pipework and supports MEP contractors buy most — and the same service covers conduits, GI accessories, and general building materials, so one request can carry your whole package. Behind every quotation stands an established UAE trading company; Qotera makes sure it's the right one, properly briefed. We're the best fit when you need clear specs, approved or approvable brands, and European-grade options — not only the lowest-price catalogue line.

One price. Five WhatsApp threads.
Zero memory.
This is how materials get bought across the UAE every day — and everyone in the chain pays for it.
Fragmented requests
"Need PPR 32mm, how much?" — no spec, no quantity, no date. The buyer asks five traders and re-types it five times.
Wasted quoting
Suppliers price incomplete, unserious requests all day. Half the quotes were never going to become orders.
Quotes die of silence
A price goes out, nobody follows up, the buyer gets busy — and a real deal quietly disappears.
Timing kills deals
The most common reason quotes fail isn't price — it's delivery timing nobody checked before quoting. We check it first.
A real, materials-heavy market —
and it's still growing.

Send it like you always do
WhatsApp message, photo of a handwritten list, BOQ extract, email table — messy is fine, that's the point. No app, no portal, no registration.
We complete & qualify it human-checked
Specs, quantities, delivery location, required date, payment expectation — checked across key spec and commercial fields, with timing checked against reality, before any supplier spends a minute on it. Anything we can reasonably infer, we do — we only come back to you for what genuinely can't be assumed, in one short message, not a form.

The right supplier quotes it
Your complete RFQ goes to the quoting team of an established UAE trading partner matched to your request — one whose categories, brand tier, and delivery coverage fit what you asked for. Supplier quote target: usually 2–3 working days where stock and specs are clear. Pricing, availability and terms come from the supplier — never from us.
You get one clean answer
Price, availability, delivery window, validity — formatted and decision-ready.
We follow up until it's decided human-checked
Won, lost, or changed — every routed RFQ tracked to quote, no-quote, or closed, with the reason logged. On confirmed orders we stay on it and chase status so you don't have to. Your next request then starts from what we already know about your sites and specs.
Qotera never sells materials, holds stock, sets prices, extends credit, or handles payments. You buy from and pay the supplier directly — exactly as today.
Watch a real-world mess become a real RFQ.

WhatsApp your requirementProcurement that remembers you.
One request, complete the first time
We ask the questions before the supplier needs to — so the first quotation you get is a real one, not the start of a negotiation about what you meant.
Never re-explain
Specs, sites, brand preferences, delivery habits — remembered, private to your account and never sold. "Same as last order, new site" becomes a one-line message, not a fresh interrogation.
Timing checked first
We flag unrealistic delivery windows before quoting — not after the deal dies.
We chase, you build
Every quotation followed up until you decide.
Direct as always
You order from and pay the supplier directly. No platform between you.
Your numbers stay yours
Your BOQ, quantities and target prices are shared only with the supplier quoting your request — never broadcast, never sold. The same confidentiality we promise our supplier partners, we promise you.
Quote real demand. Skip the noise.
Complete RFQs only
Spec, quantity, location, date, payment expectation — priceable in one read. Ambiguous figures flagged, never guessed.
Filtered demand
Price-fishers and impossible-timeline requests handled before they reach your desk.
Quotes that get chased
We follow up with the buyer on every quote you issue. Fewer deals die of silence.
A record both sides can trust
What was sourced, what was routed, what closed, and why quotes were lost — timing, price, availability, or terms. Every opportunity attributable, every report auditable. Your pricing, credit decisions, and customer relationships stay entirely yours.
We don't forward your RFQ blindly.
Your requirement only reaches a supplier partner that's been checked first — so the quotation comes from a company that can actually deliver what you asked for. One matched supplier, not a blast — we route your request to the right partner, not a dozen traders, which only trains the price up.
Real UAE trading presence
An established, contactable trading company — not a random reseller.
Right categories & brand tier
Matched to your spec — including European-grade / approvable brands where the project requires them.
Can quote & deliver
Quoting capability and delivery coverage confirmed for your location before we route.
You pay them directly
Pricing, terms, and payment are handled by the supplier. Qotera never touches the money.
What Qotera will never do.
A middleman you can trust is one whose limits are public.
Asked plainly. Answered plainly.
No. There's no platform to browse, no listings, no checkout. Qotera is a human-run sourcing-support service with a disciplined system behind it. Software supports the work — it doesn't replace the people.
Established UAE trading companies we work with as supplier partners. The supplier issues the quotation, holds the stock relationships, delivers, and invoices you directly. You'll know exactly which company is quoting your request — we just don't do introductions by webpage.
You can — and for the order itself, you do. Qotera earns its place by making the process easier: complete requests, checked timing, relentless follow-up, and a memory of everything you've ordered. If we stop being the easier path, you should stop using us.
The supplier side, through an agreed service arrangement. Buyers pay nothing to Qotera — your material price is agreed between you and the supplier, directly.
Yes — Qotera is operating in Dubai and handling material requirements today. We work closely with a focused set of buyers and supplier partners so every request gets real attention rather than sitting in a queue. If you're a trading company interested in becoming a supplier partner, we want to hear from you too.
Send your requirement. Any format.
We respond personally.
A photo of a handwritten list works. A BOQ extract works. A voice note works. Tell us what you need and where — we'll handle the rest and come back to you directly. No automated sequences, no spam.
Founded in Dubai by Mohamed Agag, an electrical engineer working in the UAE MEP field. Qotera is built around the real material-trading workflows and contractor RFQ problems he sees firsthand — you deal with the founder directly, not a call centre.
We acknowledge every requirement within 24 hours (Mon–Sat). Quotations are prepared by our supplier partners — typically within 2–3 working days of a complete request.
Trading company or material supplier? We're selectively adding supplier partners. WhatsApp us or email info@qotera.net with subject "Supplier partnership" — both reach the founder directly.
