Muscat – The project is being developed in collaboration with the Najd Agricultural Development Office at the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, and Water Resources.

The project seeks to strengthen collaboration with the agricultural community in Najd by enhancing the region’s agricultural logistics infrastructure. This includes produce collection from local farmers, cold storage, sorting, packaging, and processing — all aimed at improving product quality, minimising waste, and expanding market access for Najd’s agricultural output, both locally and regionally.

Set to become the first facility of its kind in Al Najd, the centre aims to support local farmers and bolster Oman’s food security by improving the collection, cold storage, sorting, packaging, and processing of agricultural products. With a projected capacity of 50,000 tons per year and a built-up area of 4,300 square meters, the centre is expected to significantly enhance the quality and marketability of produce from the region.

Scheduled for completion by the end of the second quarter of 2026, the project represents a strategic step forward in building a more efficient and sustainable agricultural sector.

The centre, aligned with Oman’s food security and agri-development goals, will boost local farming, food quality, and logistics.
