DP World opens first multi-user storage facility in Saudi Arabia

DP World opens first multi-user storage facility in Saudi Arabia Riyadh, July 29 /WAM/ DP World has begun operating the first multi-user, integrated third-party logistics warehouse in Saudi Arabia, thereby expanding storage and distribution capabilities available to companies serving the growing consumer and industrial sectors in the kingdom. The facility is located in Al-Masha'el district in the Al-Sali area south of Riyadh. It spans 15,250 square meters and provides over 17,000 pallet storage positions, along with scalable storage, inventory management, and distribution services offered by a single integrated logistics provider. The opening of the facility, according to a statement released today by DP World, comes as Saudi Arabia continues to accelerate investment in supply chain infrastructure under the goals of Saudi Vision 2030, boosting the growing demand for modern logistics services and advanced storage and distribution solutions in manufacturing, retail, e-commerce, and industrial activities. The facility provides customers with direct access to major transport corridors linking Saudi Arabia to the wider Gulf region. Because it operates as a non-customs-bonded warehouse, cleared goods can be moved directly to the local market, helping to reduce delivery times and improve inventory availability. Mohammed Al Shaikh, CEO of DP World Saudi Arabia, said that supply chains today require greater flexibility, clearer visibility, and higher speed. This facility allows customers to benefit from scalable storage and distribution services that help them improve inventory management, increase order fulfillment efficiency, and respond more effectively to market demand changes. He added: "By expanding our logistics presence in Riyadh, we enhance our ability to serve customers across the kingdom and contribute to supporting trade and economic growth throughout its territory." Ravin Jolyani, CEO of Logistics Operations for DP World GCC, said that Saudi Arabia is one of the fastest-growing logistics markets in the region and a key gateway for regional trade. He noted that as supply chains become more integrated in the Gulf, customers are looking for partners capable of connecting storage, transport, port, and distribution services within a single integrated network. He added that this facility enhances the scope of DP World's regional logistics operations and increases its ability to support the movement of goods between the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and global markets on a wider scale. The warehouse is designed to support the kingdom's growing consumer goods, industrial, automotive, retail, and technology sectors, providing storage, inventory management, import consolidation, and distribution services. Storage areas can also be configured to provide temperature-controlled conditions in line with growing customer demand, offering greater flexibility for customers with specialized supply chain needs. The Riyadh facility integrates with DP World's existing logistics operations in Dammam, marking a new milestone in developing an integrated national logistics network connecting ports, road transport, storage, and distribution across Saudi Arabia. It also extends DP World's ongoing investments in the kingdom, including the expansion of the South Container Terminal in Jeddah, along with the previously announced Jeddah Logistics Park development worth $250 million and spanning 415,000 square meters, which will be the largest integrated facility of its kind in the kingdom.
