The Jebel Ali Free Zone (Jafza) in Dubai invests AED90 million to develop Phase 2 of its advanced Logistics Park for enhancing its logistics functions. This financial investment serves as a strategic move which positions Dubai for premier status as a global logistics hub.
Jafza invests AED90 million into 360,000 square feet of premium facilities to support the UAE’s seven-year plan of developing its logistics sector to a yearly value of AED200 billion.
A Vision for Growth
The UAE demonstrates its commitment to international trade operations through its ongoing dual role as an important trade hub which Jafza sustains through its recent investment. New world-class infrastructure elements such as modern offices along with customizable units and temperature-controlled warehouses and advanced loading docks and increased power capacity were added during Logistics Park expansion.
Numerous industries can find their ideal facilities within Jafza due to its comprehensive infrastructure which makes the location appealing to businesses setting up operations across the area.
Jafza’s dedication to global business growth and foreign investment attraction stands in focus according to Abdulla Al Hashmi who leads DP World GCC’s Parks & Zones operations.
He observed that Phase 1 experienced full pre-move-in leasing even before it finished due to the intensive market demand for premium logistics facilities. The new expansion size of Jafza Logistics Park exceeded 922,000 square feet that established its position as a leading global logistics destination.
Meeting Growing Demand
The recent market expansion happens during a period of rising demand for state-of-the-art warehousing solutions. The increasing economic sectors of manufacturing, logistics and construction and e-commerce have resulted in an urgent requirement for state-of-the-art facilities which serve these industries.
Market analysts predict that the freight and logistics market in the Middle East and Africa will reach $235.8 billion by 2031 where Dubai takes the leading position in this transformation.
Jafza currently hosts 10,890 companies from 150 countries, supporting over 160,000 jobs and contributing AED620 billion in trade annually.
This diverse business ecosystem is a testament to Dubai’s attractiveness as a global trade hub, and the expansion of the Logistics Park will only enhance this appeal.
Phase 1 Success
Phase 1 of the Logistics Park, completed in November 2023, covers 562,507 square feet and includes Grade-A dry and pharmaceutical storage, temperature-controlled warehouses, and modern office spaces.
The swift leasing of Phase 1 demonstrates the strong demand for high-quality logistics facilities in the region. As businesses increasingly seek efficient and reliable logistics solutions, Jafza is well-positioned to meet these needs.
The introduction of Phase 2 will bridge the infrastructure gap, fueling economic growth and solidifying Dubai’s status as a global trade and logistics hub. With advanced facilities and a strategic location, Jafza is set to attract even more businesses looking to capitalize on the region’s growth potential.
The Future of Logistics in Dubai
As Dubai continues to evolve as a logistics hub, the role of Jafza becomes increasingly vital. The expansion of the Logistics Park is a clear indication of the UAE’s commitment to enhancing its logistics capabilities and supporting the growth of various industries. With the right infrastructure in place, businesses can thrive, and the economy can flourish.
The investment in Jafza’s Logistics Park aligns with the UAE’s broader vision of becoming a global leader in logistics and trade. By providing state-of-the-art facilities and services, Jafza is not only meeting current demands but also preparing for future growth.
