DP World Opens Multi-Client 3PL Warehouse in KSA: 17,000+ Pallet Positions

For supply chain and logistics professionals, DP World’s new multi-client warehouse in Riyadh is more than a real estate announcement—it’s a signal that integrated, flexible warehousing is becoming the backbone of Gulf logistics. With 15,250 sqm and 17,000+ pallet positions available on a shared-user basis, businesses can now tap into enterprise-grade distribution capacity without the capital intensity of a dedicated facility. This model directly addresses the agility and speed imperatives of modern supply chains, underlining how 3PL providers are evolving into true network orchestrators.

DP World has launched its first multi-client third-party logistics (3PL) warehouse in Saudi Arabia, a 15,250 square-metre facility in Riyadh’s Al Mashael Logistics Hub offering over 17,000 pallet positions. The opening, effective July 29, 2026, marks a significant escalation of DP World’s integrated logistics capabilities in the Kingdom, directly aligning with the infrastructure ambitions of Saudi Vision 2030. As the country accelerates investment in supply chain modernization, this non-bonded warehouse provides flexible, scalable storage and distribution services to a broad range of sectors—from manufacturing and retail to e-commerce and industrial goods—through a single logistics provider. The facility’s design as a multi-client operation, rather than a dedicated captive warehouse, signals a pivot toward more asset-light, shared-user models that enhance efficiency and reduce costs for businesses seeking to enter or expand in the Saudi market.

DP World has launched its first multi-client third-party logistics (3PL) warehouse in Saudi Arabia, a 15,250 square-metre facility in Riyadh’s Al Mashael Logistics Hub offering over 17,000 pallet positions.

The facility’s location at the Al Mashael Logistics Hub places it at the nexus of major transport corridors linking Riyadh to the wider Gulf region. This connectivity is critical for DP World, which already operates a network of ports, terminals, and logistics assets across the GCC. The non-bonded status of the warehouse means that customs-cleared goods can flow directly into domestic distribution, slashing lead times and improving inventory availability—a vital advantage in an e-commerce-driven, speed-sensitive environment. Mohammad Alshaikh, CEO of DP World KSA, emphasized the need for greater flexibility, visibility, and speed in modern supply chains, positioning the new facility as a tool for customers to optimize inventory and respond dynamically to market shifts. Raveen Guliani, COO of Logistics at DP World GCC, underscored Saudi Arabia as one of the company’s fastest-growing logistics markets and a key gateway for regional trade, with customers increasingly demanding integrated networks that connect warehousing, transportation, ports, and distribution.

For supply chain strategists, the move exemplifies a broader regional trend. Gulf countries are racing to become logistics hubs, and Saudi Arabia’s National Industrial Development and Logistics Program (NIDLP) aims to transform the Kingdom into a global logistics powerhouse. The demand for modern warehousing is surging: e-commerce penetration is rising, consumer expectations for rapid delivery are escalating, and industrial diversification under Vision 2030 is creating new flows of goods. DP World’s investment in a multi-client facility addresses a critical gap—providing small and medium-sized enterprises access to state-of-the-art logistics infrastructure without heavy capital outlay. The 17,000+ pallet positions offer scalability that can accommodate seasonal peaks and growth spurts, a flexibility that traditional dedicated warehouses often lack.
