Storage areas can also be configured for temperature-controlled conditions as customer demand grows, providing additional flexibility for customers with specialized supply chain requirements.
SAUDI ARABIA – DP World has started operations at its first multi-client third-party logistics (3PL) warehouse in Saudi Arabia, expanding integrated warehousing and distribution capacity for businesses serving the Kingdom’s growing consumer and industrial sectors as the company strengthens supply chain infrastructure in line with Saudi Vision 2030.
Located in Riyadh’s Al Mashael Logistics Hub, the 15,250-square-metre facility offers more than 17,000 pallet positions and access to scalable storage, inventory management and distribution services via a single integrated logistics provider.
The facility gives customers direct access to major transport corridors linking customers across Saudi Arabia and the wider Gulf region. Operating as a non-bonded warehouse, it allows customs-cleared goods to move directly into the domestic market, helping reduce lead times and improve inventory availability.
Strategic Vision and Industry Leadership
This new facility offers extensive storage and distribution solutions designed to streamline inventory management for diverse sectors like retail, electronics, and manufacturing.
Mohammad Alshaikh, CEO of DP World KSA, said: “Supply chains today require greater flexibility, visibility and speed. This facility gives customers access to scalable warehousing and distribution services that help optimize inventory, improve fulfilment and respond more effectively to changing market demand. By expanding our logistics footprint in Riyadh, we are strengthening our ability to support customers across Saudi Arabia and supporting trade and economic growth across the Kingdom.”
Regional Integration and Future Outlook
Raveen Guliani, COO of Logistics at DP World GCC, said: “Saudi Arabia is among our fastest-growing logistics markets in the region and a key gateway for regional trade. As supply chains become more integrated across the Gulf, customers are looking for partners that can connect warehousing, transportation, ports and distribution through one integrated network. This facility strengthens DP World’s regional logistics footprint and its ability to support cargo flows between Saudi Arabia, the UAE and wider global markets.”
Storage areas can also be configured for temperature-controlled conditions as customer demand grows, providing additional flexibility for customers with specialized supply chain requirements.
The Riyadh facility complements DP World’s existing logistics operations in Dammam and represents another milestone in the development of an integrated national logistics network connecting ports, inland transport, warehousing and distribution across Saudi Arabia
Finally, the warehouse serves as a critical link in an integrated national network, connecting major transport corridors between the Kingdom and the broader Gulf region.
