Dutco, Sweid & Sweid Launch Dubai's Largest Privately-Owned Logistics Park
Dutco and Sweid & Sweid have announced the launch of Terralogix — the emirate's largest privately-owned logistics park, in a move that reinforces Dubai's ambitions to become one of the world's top five Grade-A logistics hubs. Located in Warsan, Northern Dubai, the 3.3 million square foot development is designed to serve as a critical node in Dubai's supply chain infrastructure. Maher Sweid, Founder and Managing Partner of Sweid & Sweid commented, 'Terralogix will be developed by Dutco and Sweid & Sweid — two UAE-based firms with strong heritage and established track records. The Dutco Group brings decades of expertise across many sectors including construction, hospitality, real estate, and oil and gas, while Sweid & Sweid is known for developing high quality, institutional-grade real estate assets. Together, we will be delivering Terralogix as a landmark project to spearhead the evolution of Dubai's industrial sector.' Terralogix stands out for both its location and adaptability. As one of the few large-scale logistics developments in Northern Dubai, it provides access to areas underserved by other logistics facilities largely concentrated in Southern Dubai. The park's modular design and flexible leasing model allow tenants to scale, expand, or custom-build their facilities to meet their exact requirements. Phase One is already underway, and scheduled for completion in the third quarter of 2026. Nelson Gibb, CEO of Dutco Group commented, 'As the Dubai Economic Agenda D33 accelerates toward its target of doubling the city's economy by 2033, logistics and trade sit at the heart of that vision. The project brings meaningful new capacity to a sector under pressure from surging demand and limited supply. With direct connectivity to major highways and immediate access to airports and seaports, Terralogix is well positioned to support businesses operating across the UAE and the wider region.' Pre-leasing at Terralogix is now open. For more information, visit

Prospect & Mulk Properties launch ‘The LX' in Arjan, Dubai
Property Prospect & Mulk Properties launch 'The LX' in Arjan, Dubai By The LX is set for handover in Q3 2027 with 71 premium boutique office units and two retail spaces Prospect and Mulk Properties have launched 'The LX', a US $94.5mn boutique office and retail development in Arjan, Dubai. The project was unveiled at a launch event held at the Waldorf Astoria, Palm Jumeirah and aims to meet the growing demand for premium commercial spaces in the city. One Broker Group (OBG) will be the exclusive sales partner for The LX, the statement confirmed. The LX is set for handover in Q3 2027 with 71 premium boutique office units and two retail spaces. The offering is said to represent a rare opportunity for modern businesses and discerning investors to own commercial assets in a location experiencing 'unprecedented growth'. With Dubai witnessing an all-time high demand for flexible, high-specification office spaces, The LX is poised to fill a significant gap in Dubai's commercial real estate sector. Mulk Properties brings international development expertise and long-term vision to the partnership. Dubai's commercial market is undergoing a significant shift, moving away from generic office towers towards purpose built, design-led spaces that prioritise community integration, functionality, and long-term investment value. This launch coincides with this transformative trend, the statement explained. 'The LX marks our strategic entry into Dubai's commercial property segment, and we've done so with intention and insight,' said Nawab Shaji Ul Mulk, Chairman of Mulk International. 'Our focus has always been on high-impact, future-proof developments. With Arjan's explosive growth and limited premium office supply, The LX provides the kind of asset that can define the district. Together with Prospect and OBG, we're setting a new benchmark for what boutique commercial development in Dubai should look like.' 'The LX isn't just another commercial development it's a targeted solution to an urgent market demand,' added Rajat Verma, Co-founder of Prospect. 'Our goal has always been to develop where demand is real and rising. As Dubai grows, so does the need for smart, well-located business infrastructure. Arjan is on the cusp of a commercial renaissance, and The LX will be at the forefront of that transformation. This project exemplifies Prospect's vision of delivering high-return assets in high-potential areas.' 'What sets The LX apart is not just its design or pricing – it's how perfectly it aligns with the market's future,' remarked Umar Bin Farooq, Founder & CEO of One Broker Group. 'We're witnessing a major shift in how commercial real estate is being utilised in Dubai. Businesses want flexibility, quality, and connectivity. Arjan offers all three, and The LX delivers on them at a premium standard. We're proud to represent a development that understands what the market truly needs.' With direct access to major highways, Al Barsha South, Jumeirah Village Circle, and Dubai Science Park, Arjan is one of the few remaining zones offering centrality without congestion. With thousands of new residential units being delivered, the demand for adjacent commercial infrastructure is rising sharply. The LX directly supports this growth by offering a professionally designed, investor-grade asset that balances prestige with practicality. The project exemplifies how visionary partnerships between developers and expert sales strategists can reshape Dubai's commercial real estate future. The LX, drawing strong interest from investors, SMEs, and entrepreneurs seeking a growth-focused location with ROI potential, is led by One Broker Group, which holds the exclusive sales mandate, the statement concluded.
