Asyad Group includes three free zones - all supported by Oman’s five airports, a planned new USD 20 billion rail network and a USD 10 billion world-class road network providing gateway distribution capabilities across the Sultanate and the wider Middle East.
The modern, technologically advanced ports of Salalah, Sohar and Duqm are unrivalled in their connectivity - strategically located within two weeks sail of all major global ports, and benefitting from rapid access to the growing Middle East, Indian and East-African markets.
Together, the ports run 200 weekly maritime services to 86 commercial ports across more than 40 countries providing a vast network for clients to make cost and time savings.
Asyad's free zones provide importers with significant benefits across the logistics sector. The existing free zones in Salalah and Sohar are soon to be joined by a third in Khazaen Economic City – situated near Barka, just outside Oman’s capital city Muscat.
