The access road will connect Saja’a Industrial Park with three Sharjah ports
Gulftainer will finance the construction of the AED 11mn Saja’a Permanent Access Road.
The highway will extend over two kilometres to link the Saja’a Industrial Investment Park (SIIP), Gulftainer’s first-ever leasehold initiative, via the Emirates Road (E611), to the three major seaports in Sharjah-Port Khalid, Hamriyah Port and Khorfakkan Port.
Spanning an area of 750,000sqm., SIIP is set to become a fully bonded logistics facility with goods imported under bond exempt from duty or VAT until released to the local market.
“Our investment testifies to our commitment to boosting Sharjah’s economy and enhancing the emirate’s global competitiveness ranking,” affirmed Peter Richards, Group CEO, Gulftainer.
SIIP aims to address the growing demand for logistics facilities in the UAE in the run-up to mega events such as Expo 2020.
