Jafza is reinforcing its position as a key logistics hub with a strategic AED 90 million (£19.8 million) investment in Phase 2 of its Logistics Park. The expansion adds 360,000 square feet of Grade-A facilities, aligning with the UAE’s goal of growing its logistics sector to AED 200 billion annually within seven years.
The new phase introduces world-class infrastructure, including modern offices, temperature-controlled warehouses, loading docks, and enhanced power capacity to cater to diverse industries. Abdulla Al Hashmi, COO of Parks & Zones, DP World GCC, emphasized Jafza’s commitment to supporting businesses and attracting foreign investment. “Phase 1 was fully leased before completion, proving the demand for high-quality logistics and warehousing. Phase 2 builds on this momentum, offering flexible, cutting-edge solutions,” he said.
With the Middle East and Africa’s freight and logistics market projected to reach $235.8 billion by 2031, demand for advanced warehousing is surging. Jafza Logistics Park meets this need, leveraging its connectivity with Jebel Ali Port to provide services such as contract logistics, freight forwarding, and re-export solutions.
Designed with sustainability in mind, the park integrates energy-efficient features like skylights and off-site construction methods to reduce its environmental impact. Jafza currently hosts 10,890 companies from 150 countries, supporting over 160,000 jobs and contributing AED 620 billion in trade annually.
