Pan Kingdom Real Estate secured a contract to develop <\/strong>a plug-and-play <\/strong>factory complex at King Salman Energy Park (<\/strong>Spark<\/strong>)<\/strong>, according to a press release<\/a>. The complex will span 214k sqm and include 168 ready-built facilities targeting the energy sector. The agreement\u2019s value and project timeline weren\u2019t disclosed. <\/p>\n

Why it matters:<\/strong> The plug-and-play model offers a fast-track solution for local and international firms to set up in Saudi Arabia as tenders become increasingly tied to localization requirements. India-based Man Industries paid USD 102 mn to solve that problem last month by acquiring<\/a> Saudi Arabia\u2019s National Pipe Company because the firm was \u201cno longer eligible for many tenders\u201d without a local presence, MD Nikhil Manuskhani told us. <\/p>\n

Asmo eyes expansion<\/p>\n

Asmo <\/strong>Logistics \u2014 the Aramco-DHL JV \u2014 will open two new facilities in <\/strong>Jubail<\/strong> and a second undisclosed location over the next two years<\/strong>, Asmo CEO Nico Schutz told the Arabic press (watch, runtime: 4:30<\/a>). The company currently operates four sites in the Kingdom.<\/p>\n

Lots in the works for Asmo: <\/strong>The company is also finalizing<\/a> a logistics hub at King Salman Energy Park, building a central pipe yard<\/a> in the Eastern Province, developing a facility in Jazan, and expanding a warehouse<\/a> near Riyadh. Asmo also plans to offer inventory financing services to clients, following an MoU signed with JPMorgan last year \u2014 with details currently being finalised.<\/p>\n

Amaala is here<\/p>\n

PIF-owned <\/strong>Red <\/strong>Sea Global (RSG) just launched The Four Seasons Resort <\/strong>and Residences Amaala at Triple Bay<\/strong>, the first phase of its Amaala ultra-luxury wellness destination on the west coast, according to a press release<\/a>. The resort includes 202 rooms and 26 private villas, along with a 2.1k sqm wellness and spa center. <\/p>\n

BACKGROUND- <\/strong>RSG secured<\/a> an SAR 6.5 bn credit facility last year to fund the development. Amaala is set to include eight resorts and branded residences, with rollout slated for this year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
