RIYADH: ROSHN, the Saudi real estate developer, signed eight giga contracts worth SR8 billion ($2.1 billion) to develop modern infrastructure and facilities across the several projects it is developing across the Kingdom.
The Public Investment Fund-owned company signed the deals at the Private Sector Forum that concluded in Riyadh on Wednesday.
“The pace of work at ROSHN’s project encourages us to partner with the private sector to achieve our goals, these types of partnerships are core to what we do at ROSHN, as we are mandated to uplift the industry and raise the bar in the real estate sector by providing new modes of living that contribute to raising the quality of life in Saudi Arabia and Vision 2030 goals,” said Oussama Kabbani, the group’s chief development officer.
The real estate developer signed agreements with China Harbor Engineering Co., Shapoorji and Balooni Co., Ansab Contracting Co., Cityscape Group, Al Kifah Precast Co., Haif Co., and Trans Contracting Co.

Various partnership opportunities were showcased, alongside several announcements regarding deals already struck.
