SOHAR Port is a deep-sea port centrally located and within easy reach of the booming economies of the Gulf and the Indian subcontinent. With a reach to over 2.2 billion consumers, it is one of the few global ports equipped with deep-water jetties capable of handling the world`s largest ships. SOHAR Port is ideal for the import and export of a wide variety of dry, break, and liquid bulk, as well as container shipping. SOHAR is a 50:50 joint venture between the Government of Oman and the Port of Rotterdam.
SOHAR Freezone is a 4,500 hectares development that, together with SOHAR Port, has attracted over US$27 billion in investments. The first phase of the free zone has been developed, with almost 75% of the 500 hectares leased. Phase 2 is now well under way. This will see further expansion and growth for new investors looking to take advantage of the compelling value proposition with unique incentives to operate their companies easily and flexibly, in an environment where businesses can prosper.
Today, SOHAR is Oman’s largest port and industrial complex, handling almost 60 million tons of cargo. It boasts well-developed industrial activities in the petrochemicals, metals, and energy sectors. Tomorrow, SOHAR aims to be this, and so much more. Expanding at a rapid pace with SOHAR Port South and SOHAR Freezone, both in their second phases of development, we continue to welcome investors to experience the unprecedented success and upward trajectory of one of the world’s fastest-growing port and free zone developments.
