SOHAR Port and Freezone together with RFX Industrial parks LLC are pleased to announce the recent signing of a Development Agreement encompassing 58 hectares within the SOHAR Freezone. This collaboration will see the development of turnkey, bespoke new built-to-lease logistics and light industrial units for tenants requiring modern accommodation within SOHAR Freezone.

Highlighting the importance of the collaboration, Mark Geilenkirchen CEO of SOHAR Port and Freezone noted, “With several potential investments in the pipeline, SOHAR is committed towards providing tenants with the best high quality services to ensure an unmatched business experience. Our partnership with RFX will see the creation of new and innovative methods to further support existing tenants, as well as encourage newer ones to set up at the Port and Freezone.”

The entire development will comprise up to 290,000m2 of leasable space, which will offer various logistics size formats, including box and flex-log while also providing an easy solution of moving to larger units as tenant businesses expand.
