A new cooperation between MSM Logistic LLC, an international construction and development business, and Abu Dhabi Airports Free Zone (ADAFZ), a division of Abu Dhabi Airports, has been launched in order to establish a new building complex within the free zone for an investment of USD 23 million.

The Al Falah sector is currently undergoing a master development to the east of Abu Dhabi International Airport (AUH), and the project is expected to be the first to break ground there. It calls for the construction of one warehouse with a total size of 16,500 square metres.

Letting an area of 28,623 square metres is part of the project’s first phase, which is scheduled to begin in Q4 2023 and was finalised by the signing of a Musataha agreement during ADIPEC, the largest energy event in the world, which took place in November 2023.

The agreement entitles MSM Logistic to construct a building and lease the plot of land, at Abu Dhabi Airports free zone, in close proximity to the area where the first phase will begin in the Al Falah district.

Maureen Bannerman, Chief Commercial Officer, Abu Dhabi Airports, said, “Today’s announcement is the latest example of our commitment to welcome international organisations into our free zone ecosystem and nurture its growth.

“Abu Dhabi Airports Free Zone has a proud history of working with companies from different sectors and we are delighted to be collaborating with MSM Logistics, moving forward.

“Their experience and expertise, combined with our resources and infrastructure, will play a key role in developing world-class facilities to serve the needs of local and international businesses.”

Since being founded in 2006, MSM Group firms have solidified their position as a trustworthy partner in the planning and development of industrial, logistical, and commercial complexes.

The firm has constructed more than 1,650,000 square metres of commercial real estate while collaborating with several globally renowned companies.

Commenting on the agreement with ADAFZ, Evgenii Gurkin, General Manager, MSM Logistics, added, “We are thrilled at the prospect of working within the Abu Dhabi Airports Free Zone, and expanding our operational footprint in the UAE capital.

“This innovative free zone has continuously attracted local, regional, and international companies wishing to establish operations and undertake projects in Abu Dhabi. We look forward to forging a successful long-term partnership with ADAFZ.”
