Access World to build 3PL facility in Jebel Ali Free Zone
Access World Logistics L.L.C., a joint-venture between the UAE-based Rais Hassan Saadi, RHS, Group and Switzerland-headquartered Access World Group, held a ground-breaking ceremony at the site of their upcoming third-party logistics facility at Jebel Ali Free Zone. During the welcome address, Peter M Waszkis, CEO of Access World, said, "Our vision is to deliver value to all our stakeholders by providing comprehensive logistics solutions in a competitive, safe and friendly environment."
The multi-product warehousing facility, scheduled to be commissioned during the second quarter of 2018, is being constructed at a strategically located plot of 40,000 square metres, with an overall investment in excess of AED40 million.
It will include a warehouse of 15,000 square metres with an apex height of 13.7 metres and eaves height of 11.5 metres split into 3 chambers offering bulk-storage and ambient-temperature, as well as air-conditioned storage, (220 C) with very narrow aisle racking systems.
The logistics centre, which is expected to meet its power requirement largely through a roof-top solar-panel system, will also have an open-storage yard of some 6,500 square metres, a road-weighbridge, ancillary facilities as well as an office block.
Kishore Natarajan, General Manager of Access World Logistics L.L.C., added that the facility will be listed with the LME and the DGCX. In addition to non-ferrous metals, steel, OCTG, polymers, and other industrial goods, the company will provide efficient logistics solutions for soft commodities, FMCG/retail products, machinery and spares, project and general cargo.
