The opening ceremony was presided over by Eng. Daoud bin Salem Al Hadabi, the CEO of Madayn, and attended by officials from the public and private sectors, investors, and business owners.
The inauguration of this building comes at a time of rapid industrial growth in the Sultanate of Oman. It reflects Madayn's ongoing efforts, through its investment arm, Shumookh for Investment and Services, to develop essential infrastructure in industrial cities across various governorates. These efforts aim to ensure a comprehensive quality environment for work, life, and leisure for all.
Eng. Muslim bin Juma Al Hadifi, CEO of Shumookh for Investment and Services, emphasized the vital role that the industrial sector plays in economic development. It contributes to job creation, increases national income, and boosts exports. Al Rusayl Industrial City, with its excellent infrastructure and advanced logistics services, is a prominent hub for industrial activities in Oman and continues to expand.
He further explained that the services and facilities building project in Al Rusayl Industrial City is part of Shumookh's commitment to strategic projects. The company has successfully invested in similar service buildings, including the fifth building in Muscat Knowledge Oasis and the services building in Sohar Industrial City. Shumookh currently manages and operates this 19,000 square meter building, which includes 200 parking spaces within the building and additional public parking nearby.
Al Hadifi noted that the building comprises ten floors (basement, ground floor, and eight additional floors) with a total leasable area of up to 8,500 square meters. It has been designed to provide various facilities and services, including banking services, exchange offices, travel agencies, a medical clinic, labor inspection center, cafes, a consumer goods store, and a variety of international and local restaurants. The building also offers numerous office spaces for government institutions, private companies, and organizations, providing visitors and investors with a diverse and unique experience. This addition enhances the industrial city's offerings and adds value to the local economy.
Eng. Mohsen bin Zuhair Al Hinai, CEO of Al Rusayl Industrial City, highlighted that the services and facilities building project is part of Madayn's continuous efforts to provide incentives and services that facilitate local and foreign investments in its industrial cities. These efforts align with Oman Vision 2040 and aim to boost the national economy by attracting investments and global strategic partnerships while promoting job opportunities and local industrial growth.
