Nakheel Oman Development Company, an affiliate of Oman Food Investment Holding Co (Nitaj), has solidified its footprint in Dhofar Governorate, with a series of current operations and promising new initiatives.
Ongoing projects in the region include the Al-Najd Farm in Marsoodad, Maqshin; Rahab Farm in Shaleem; and an advanced organic fertilizer factory in the Raysut Industrial Area. These efforts are crucial in advancing agricultural practices and fostering sustainability within Dhofar.
Reaffirming its commitment to innovation, Nakheel Oman recently signed a pivotal agreement to establish a Textile Agriculture Centre branch in Salalah. This groundbreaking project highlights the company’s dedication to pioneering agricultural technologies in Oman.
Additionally, plans for an Integrated Centre for the Collection of Agricultural Products at Hanfeet in Al-Najd are underway. This center aims to revolutionize the supply chain for agricultural products, enhancing efficiency in the collection and distribution processes.
The total investment for these projects in Dhofar Governorate amounts to approximately RO 14 million.
Speaking at the recent agreement signings, Khalid bin Awad al Balushi, CEO of Oman National Investments Development Company (Tanmia), a co-founder of Nakheel Oman, stated, “The company has signed an agreement with the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Water Resources and the Ministry of Housing and Urban Planning to invest in a plot in Dhofar. This aligns with our focus on textile agriculture, a promising future technology.”
He added, “Oman is a pioneer in textile agriculture, with over 20 years of experience in this field. Our presence in Dhofar will enable us to produce various plants for textile agriculture, such as palm and banana tissue. We will also be able to process and distribute these products locally, closer to the consumers.”
