About / Sector knowledge / Industrial parks & clustering

This is the most effective approach to propel Saudi industries to become globally competitive and leverage the country’s advantages - energy and location. Clustering is the economic catalyst that promises to develop export-oriented, energy, petrochemical and mineral resources to collectively contribute to the diversification of the economy and to create substantial numbers of rewarding opportunities for job seekers and investors alike. Himmah was the first local firm to set the strategy and invest in establishing an industrial cluster for steel, a first in the Middle East, which included an iron ore hub combined with a Pelletizing Plant. Currently, Himmah - along with partners - is developing a silica and glass cluster, which will include upstream and downstream opportunities. Himmah formed a consortium and submitted offer to develop Sudair Industrial city. Additionally, Himmah is part of Eltizam Consortium, shortlisted to develop the industrial and logistics parks at King Abdullah Economic City. Furthermore, Himmah and a consortium of local and international investment partners are planning to develop the first energy services industrial cluster in Saudi Arabia.
