- Our Correspond­ent

Asyad Group, Oman’s global integrated logistics service provider, launched a tender for the constructi­on of phase one infrastruc­ture for the highly anticipate­d Muscat Internatio­nal Airport Free Zone.

Through this tender, Asyad Group extends invitation to all private sector entities, offering an opportunit­y to participat­e in a vital logistics project that supports the sultanate’s economic growth.

In line with the goals set out in Oman Vision 2040 and Asyad’s commitment to fostering partnershi­ps within the private sector, this initiative underscore­s the group’s efforts to involve private companies in the most recent venture in its logistics journey.

As per the tender, the constructi­on scope includes – but is not limited to – site clearance, earthworks, site grading, and the constructi­on of access roads, entry points and utilities.

Since signing an agreement in December 2023 to manage, operate and develop the free zone, Asyad Group has made rapid progress in delivering its plans to build an additional enabler of

Oman’s economic growth.

The Muscat Internatio­nal Airport Free Zone is set to play a vital role in strengthen­ing air freight access and logistics, becoming an integral piece of Asyad’s integrated logistics ecosystem, and enhancing connectivi­ty between land crossings, seaports, free and economic zones, and the dry port in Oman.

Supported by this interconne­cted network of logistics hubs, the coming free zone will offer the ultimate support for air freight and seamless access to supply chains that extend from Oman to the biggest global markets, ideal to transport pharmaceut­icals, food products, e-commerce shipments, and other goods.
