The brand that matters in services in 2026

Fast Company Middle East unveils the Brands That Matter 2026 list, celebrating 32 winners across 19 categories. These brands are making a real difference, combining purpose with performance to create lasting impact. From advertising and banking & finance to retail and technology, they’re reshaping industries and championing values that matter most today

Services is a sector defined by its breadth and underestimated for exactly that reason. As regional economies diversify and the private sector expands, demand for high-quality, scalable service providers is intensifying across every vertical. The organizations winning in this space are those treating service delivery not as a cost center but as a genuine source of competitive advantage.

Justlife

For turning home services into a platform people actually rely on

Justlife’s brand is built on a simple idea: helping people reclaim their time. In today’s busy world, where it’s hard to juggle work, family, and personal life, Justlife has become the UAE’s top home services platform by making everyday help easier to access, more dependable, and more convenient. In the past year, Justlife hit a major milestone, reaching 15 million service bookings. 

The company started with home cleaning but has grown into a platform offering cleaning, maintenance, beauty, wellness, laundry, and home healthcare services. Innovation has always been at the heart of this growth. The launch of the “We Got You” brand platform helped connect with customers, and the introduction of Justlife Healthcare brought regulated healthcare services to people’s homes through licensed medical partners. Now, customers can book doctor visits, nursing care, physiotherapy, psychotherapy, lab tests, and wellness services all in one place. Justlife has changed what people expect from convenience, care, and quality, becoming a well-known name in the UAE’s service industry.
