Latter will develop one warehouse across 16,500sqm within the Al Falah district
Abu Dhabi Airports Free Zone (ADAFZ), a subsidiary of Abu Dhabi Airports, recently announced a new partnership with MSM Logistics, an overseas construction and development company, to develop a new building complex within the free zone at an investment value of AED 85mn (US$ 23.15mn).
Set to be the first development to start building in the Al Falah district, an ongoing master development towards the east of Abu Dhabi International Airport (AUH), the project includes the construction of 1 warehouse with a total area of 16,500sqm with the possibility of splitting this area into three distinct pockets for multiple storage purposes – on a plot of land covering 28,623sqm.
The first phase of the project is due to start in Q4-2023 and includes leasing the area formalised through the signing of a Musataha agreement during ADIPEC, the world’s largest energy event, held in Abu Dhabi. The agreement entitles MSM Logistic to construct a building and lease the plot of land, at Abu Dhabi Airports free zone, near the area where the first phase will begin in the Al Falah district.
