In the burgeoning landscape of Saudi Arabia’s Logistics Real Estate Services market, a real estate investment fund embarked on an ambitious venture. Their vision? To develop a sprawling complex spanning 1.8 million square meters in Riyadh, with the aim of yielding short-term returns within a tight three-year window. However, amidst their aspirations lay a formidable challenge: they lacked the nuanced expertise required to navigate this dynamic sector and entice pivotal tenants–logistics service providers (LSPs) and third-party logistics (3PL) enterprises.

In response to this challenge, our research team was summoned to deliver a comprehensive analysis of the Saudi Arabian logistics real estate market. Our mandate was clear: to scrutinize market trends, unearth potential obstacles, and pinpoint lucrative opportunities while deciphering the unique requirements and preferences of LSPs. Through meticulous examination, we meticulously curated a detailed report that served as a roadmap to guide the investment fund towards tailored and actionable investment strategies, finely attuned to the nuances of the Saudi Arabian logistics landscape.

Our involvement extended beyond analysis; we crafted strategic insights, moulding the master plan to align seamlessly with the requirements of LSP and 3PL businesses. By infusing vital insights into the master plan, we ensured optimal configuration of layout and infrastructure, setting the stage for a compelling value proposition. Leveraging our expertise in devising effective Go-to-Market strategies, we facilitated the investment fund in captivating ideal tenants through targeted marketing approaches, maximising occupancy rates and advancing towards investment objectives.

We explored market trends, identified challenges and opportunities, and evaluated the specific needs and preferences of LSPs. This comprehensive research culminated in a detailed report, presenting:

  •  Investment Strategies: Tailored investment strategies for the Saudi Arabian logistics landscape, guiding the fund towards maximising returns within their timeframe.
  • Master Plan Insights: Critical insights integrated into the master plan, ensuring attractiveness to LSP and 3PL businesses, optimising efficiency, and functionality.
  • Go-to-Market Strategy: Formulating a winning Go-to-Market strategy by identifying key factors resonating with LSPs, enabling a targeted marketing approach to attract crucial tenants.

Our analysis and recommendations provided the investment fund with profound insights into the Saudi Arabian logistics real estate market. The detailed research report served as a crucial decision-making tool, offering clarity on market dynamics and potential pitfalls. Furthermore, our insights informed the master plan’s optimisation, aligning the development with the needs of LSPs and 3PL businesses. Additionally, our compelling Go-to-Market strategy, informed by our research, provided a clear path for attracting ideal tenants, maximising occupancy rates, and ultimately realising the fund’s investment goals.
