MUSCAT– The initiative aims to attract investment through a 20-year contract for the development of two plots: Plot No. 184 (3,554 m²) and Plot No. 185 (5,721 m²).

The project is part of the municipality’s efforts to revitalise commercial infrastructure and offer enhanced facilities for traders and shoppers in one of Muscat’s most historically vibrant areas.

While Plot No. 185 involves the development of parking facilities with clearly defined vehicle access, pedestrian pathways, landscaping, and planting works, the Plot No. 184 plan includes the construction of two commercial buildings featuring ten retail shops.

Muscat Municipality is inviting interested investors to participate in the public tender, offering the chance to develop the Friday Market into a modern commercial hub while preserving its traditional community value.

The contract period for the project is set at 20 years, during which the investor will be responsible for constructing and operating the facilities in accordance with the approved design and planning guidelines.
