announced the floating of the tender to implement the infrastructure and facilities
for phase 1 of Al Suwaiq Industrial City in the Governorate of North Al
Batinah.

Hamood
Al Balushi, Assistant Director General of Al Suwaiq Industrial City, said that Phase
1 development covers an area of five million sqm and comprises the construction
of internal roads, water, electricity, and sewage networks, as well as other
essential infrastructure and facilities. The tender also includes establishing several
greenhouse units for the implementation of advanced agri-tech solutions, with
the aim of supporting food security and promoting agricultural investments
alongside related industries.

Al
Balushi highlighted that, despite the city still being in its infrastructure
preparation phase, Al Suwaiq Industrial City received more than 14 investment
applications in 2025 across diverse sectors, including food, marble, plastics,
and building materials. Two of these projects have already been localised,
covering a total area exceeding 6,800 sqm with a combined investment value of RO
400,000. The city’s management continues to review the remaining applications
in preparation for their localisation in the upcoming phase.

He

Industrial City, including a two-year rental exemption, followed by a 50% rent reduction
for the subsequent three years. These incentives aim to position Al Suwaiq
Industrial City as an attractive destination for local and foreign investments,
particularly given the availability of modern infrastructure and streamlined
government services provided by Madayn.

It
is worthwhile to mention that Madayn has conducted studies to identify investment
opportunities aligned with the economic diversification strategy and Oman
Vision 2040. Al Suwaiq Industrial City aims at attracting quality investments
in key sectors, including petrochemicals, food sector, modern agriculture,
energy and supporting technologies, recycling and environmental industries,
light and medium industries, pharmaceuticals, technology and innovation, heavy
industries, and logistics.

Al
Suwaiq Industrial City stands as a key addition to the Sultanate of Oman’s
network of industrial cities, offering attractive investment opportunities, competitive
incentives, and advanced infrastructure. The city will generate both direct and
indirect job opportunities, empower entrepreneurs to launch innovative projects,
and support the growth of non-oil revenues.
