Background
DP World and Lintara Properties, the real estate development platform of Arcapita Group Holdings, have broken ground on a new 20,000 square metre build-to-suit logistics centre in Dubai’s Jebel Ali Free Zone.
Lintara Properties is developing the Grade A facility, which DP World will operate as part of its integrated supply chain network across the region. Construction is expected to wrap up in the first quarter of 2027.
The facility will include approximately 12-metre clear height storage, temperature-controlled areas, dedicated dangerous goods storage, office space, and operational amenities.
DP World GCC Chief Executive and Managing Director Ahmad Yousef Al-Hassan said the facility addresses the growing complexity of regional supply chains and adds purpose-built warehousing capability in Jafza. He added that the project reflects how Dubai’s trade ecosystem continues to evolve in line with the needs of regional and international businesses.
Arcapita’s Head of MENA Real Estate and Lintara Properties Chief Executive, Isa Al Khalifa, said the development reflects the company’s focus on delivering high-quality logistics assets aligned with tenant operational needs. He noted that Jebel Ali Free Zone remains a key regional logistics hub, and the project responds to rising demand for well-located, institutional-grade facilities.
Lintara Properties will manage construction and take on asset management responsibilities once the facility is complete. The development fits into Arcapita’s wider approach to pumping money into tenant-led industrial real estate along the big regional logistics corridors
