MSM Logistics, has partnered with Abu Dhabi Airports Free Zone (ADAFZ) to develop a new warehousing facility in the Al Falah District, a move that underscores the growing opportunities for Indian businesses in Abu Dhabi.
This strategic collaboration will bolster trade and economic development in Abu Dhabi, leveraging the emirate’s advanced infrastructure and business-friendly environment, the company said in a statement.
The Al Falah District, situated to the east of Zayed International Airport, spans 8.3 sqkm and is the largest free zone district in ADAFZ’s portfolio. Known for its modern infrastructure and strategically planned urban landscape, Al Falah District is an ideal hub for sectors like cargo, logistics services, light manufacturing, and the agrifood growth and water abundance (AGWA) cluster.
The project involves the development of a 28,623 sqmt plot, providing flexible storage solutions for both local and international businesses, with a focus on the logistics sector.
MSM Logistics, with its strong track record in designing and constructing industrial complexes, will work closely with ADAFZ to create innovative, high-standard solutions.
This partnership, officially announced at ADIPEC 2023, has significant investment of AED85 million and marks a new chapter in ADAFZ’s efforts to attract foreign direct investment (FDI) and support the UAE’s economic diversification strategy.
“It gives me great pleasure to see this project come to fruition. This collaboration with MSM Logistic marks a significant milestone for ADAFZ, highlighting our commitment to progress and innovation in Al Falah District. Together with our partners, we are laying the foundation for an exciting future that will invigorate trade and economic development in Abu Dhabi and support the overarching economic diversification efforts in the UAE,” Wilson Chan, Senior Vice President of Free Zone Cargo and Logistics at ADAFZ, said.
This partnership highlights the strong potential for Indian companies to expand their operations and achieve significant growth in Abu Dhabi, taking advantage of the emirate’s supportive infrastructure and strategic location as a global trade and logistics hub.
Commenting on the development, Evgeniy Gurkin, General Manager of MSM Logistic, said, “The location is very promising, and we look forward to implementing more projects here. The warehouse we are working on now will be ready to welcome our partners in Q1 2025 and will be the first to tie-in when the large-scale infrastructure project in Al Falah is in full swing.”
