Work begins on RSA Logistics facility

Dubai World Central (DWC), the world’s first purpose-built aerotropolis, has revealed that RSA Logistics has commenced construction of a 9,500-sqm temperature-controlled facility adjacent to the company’s headquarters in DWC’s Logistics District.

The upcoming facility, which will be operational by March 2014, targets the automotive and hi-tech industries. RSA Logistics also inaugurated a new open yard facility extending from the new premises, which is fully operational.

DWC pointed out that RSA Logistics is one of several companies taking advantage of DWC’s integrated infrastructure to strategically expand their core offerings to local and regional businesses in the Mena region.

DWC offers an array of benefits to logistics businesses with its integrated operation model, high level of security and safety, enhanced connectivity and competitive pricing. Its modern facilities and state-of-the-art infrastructure have enabled businesses to expand regionally and globally from Dubai.

RSA’s move to expand their footprint in DWC complements the company’s commitment to address a growing need in the region for high-quality process-driven facilities. By providing specialised and expansive facilities for storage, the company hopes to cater to the diverse needs of its impressive clientele, as well as potential customers who will benefit from its multi-faceted services.

“As we continue to cement our presence in the UAE, we understand that specialised and dedicated services are what our customers require. This new facility will focus on the hi-tech and automotive business verticals, which require temperature, humidity and hygiene controls,” said Abhishek Ajay Shah, Director of Operations and Business Development at RSA Logistics. 

Mohsen Ahmad, VP Logistics District, Dubai World Central, said: “A combination of factors such as the state-of-the-art infrastructure, the fully integrated ecosystem and the high level of connectivity make Dubai World Central an ideal base for logistics and trading companies to not only establish their presence in the UAE but also successfully tap new regional and international markets. RSA Logistics in particular can expect significant strategic benefits by expanding their facilities in the Logistics District, which continues to attract major companies from around the world.”

Dubai World Central consists of 8 fully integrated districts, helping drive business in different industries, including aviation, logistics, commercial, real estate and exhibitions.
