“We are proud to receive this prestigious award, which stands as yet another testament to the excellence of Al Wukair Logistics Park. Having advanced to the shortlist, the project secured the award following fierce competition with leading logistics companies across the Middle East. This achievement underscores Al Wukair Logistics Park’s unparalleled offerings and comprehensive infrastructure, which play a vital role in empowering micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs).”

Al Wukair Logistics Park, spanning across 1.5 million square meters, offers ideal infrastructure required for the operational success of MSMEs. With various light industrial and warehousing units, and open yards, the park caters to all types of warehousing and distribution requirements for sector-wide enterprises.

The first and second phases of Al Wukair Logistics Park have successfully attracted a significant number of MSMEs. GWC has launched Al Wukair Logistics Park Directory, a comprehensive platform aimed at boosting the MSMEs growth and enhancing partnerships and alliances within the local market, empowering them to succeed.

“Supporting MSMEs is a cornerstone of GWC’s strategy as we strive to contribute to Qatar’s economic diversification efforts in line with Qatar National Vision 2030 and the Third National Development Strategy 2024-2030. We have introduced a range of initiatives to support this mission, with Al Wukair Logistics Park serving as a model of success in this respect both locally and regionally,” added GWC Managing Director.

Matthew Kearns, GWC’s Group Acting CEO, stated that, “This marks the second time that Al Wukair Logistics Park has received a prestigious award. In September 2024, it was named Qatar’s National Winner in the ‘Industrial Project of the Year’ category at the MEED Projects Awards. This recognition reaffirms the project’s significant impact on the logistics sector both within Qatar and across the region.”

Al Wukair logistics park offers a one-stop-shop for leasing a warehouse or light industry unit, company formation formalities, including applications for necessary permits, and logistics operations.

Start-ups who work with GWC will benefit from years of local, regional and international experience, along with a global, integrated network. With GWC’s in-depth understanding of the local market, Al Wukair Logistics Park emerges as the premier choice for businesses to avail of and enjoy the best logistics infrastructure.

All services at the logistics park are powered by GWC, allowing clients access to the company’s end-to-end logistics services and solutions, including customs clearance, transport, racking, supply chain consulting, freight, distribution and more.

These services are immediately operational, with all utilities (water, electricity and fibre-internet), as well as IT infrastructure governed by an on-site data center, enabling clients to be ready for business the moment they choose GWC as a service provider.
