MUSCAT : This growth is supported by the zone’s operational stability, efficient infrastructure, and strategic location linked directly to the Port of Salalah.

Within the framework of supporting the continuity of supply chains during the regional crisis, Salalah Free Zone – in cooperation with the Port of Salalah and Royal Oman Police, represented by the Directorate General of Customs – established a temporary container storage yard covering an area of 20,000 square meters. The initiative aims to enhance storage capacity and ensure the smooth flow of goods and logistics services.

Furthermore, Salalah Free Zone recently signed agreements for four new projects within the warehouses and ready-built industrial units’ sector. These include a project for packaging and trading vegetable oils, another for logistics services and general trade, a project for assembling and manufacturing electronic components and chips used in technical applications and devices, and a specialized logistics project for storage, handling, and supply chain support services.

On the other hand, Salalah Free Zone attracted investment projects from several countries, including the People’s Republic of China, India, Türkiye, Malaysia, Kuwait, Iraq, Iran, Sudan, and Yemen. These investments span diverse sectors, including food and medical industries, packaging, logistics, recycling, chemical industries, as well as artificial intelligence technologies and data analysis.
