DP World's Jebel Ali Free Zone (Jafza) has successfully completed Phase 1 of Jafza Logistics Park, a multi-tenant warehousing facility developed in collaboration with Group AMANA.

The first phase of the project covers an area of 562,507 square feet and includes a variety of facilities, such as ‘Grade-A’ Dry Pharma storage units, temperature-controlled warehouses, and office space.

Phase 1 was leased completely before its completion, showing the strength of demand for logistics and warehousing solutions.

The second phase, which will add another 250,000 square feet of Grade A storage facilities, is scheduled for completion in Q1 2025.

"The park's strategic connectivity via Jebel Ali will boost our customers' reach and help them further expand their footprint, facilitating seamless access to global markets and enhancing their competitiveness," said Abdulla Al Hashmi, Chief Operating Officer, Parks and Zones at DP World GCC.

Jafza Logistics Park was designed with sustainability in mind. It uses precast concrete elements and off-site construction techniques to reduce its environmental impact.

The park also features skylights to harness natural lighting during the day, effectively reducing energy consumption.
