ROSHN Group, Saudi Arabia's leading multi-asset real estate developer and a Public Investment Fund (PIF) company, has been crowned as Saudi Arabia's most valuable real estate brand at a value topping $1 billion by Brand Finance, the world's leading independent brand valuation consultancy.
ROSHN Group was founded just under five years ago with a mandate to contribute to Vision 2030.
Now, its brand and reputation rank in the top 20 across different sectors nationwide and is the third most valuable real estate brand regionally, said a statement from ROSHN.
The rapid growth of the brand and financial performance of the Group mirrors the expansion of the Kingdom's real estate market over the past decade, following the push by Vision 2030 to promote national development.
Brand Finance found that ROSHN Group's new identity and expansion into sectors such as education, entertainment, healthcare, and sports – the Group is involved in building two of the stadiums that will host the 2034 FIFA World Cup in Saudi Arabia – has also helped to raise its profile nationally, regionally, and globally, it stated.
Ghada Alrumayan, Group Chief Marketing and Communications Officer at ROSHN Group, said: "We are proud to see ROSHN crowned as the strongest real estate brand in the Kingdom - an accomplishment achieved in less than five years. This milestone reflects the success of our expansion strategy and new brand launch, embodying our clear vision and rapid growth as we reinforce the Group's real estate leadership in Saudi Arabia."
Alrumayan said: "This recognition is a result of the growing trust in our brand and the added value we deliver, setting new benchmarks across the real estate sector. We will continue to build on this success to further cement ROSHN's position as a model of excellence and leadership, shaping the future of the industry in line with Saudi Vision 2030 and its goals to enhance quality of life and diversify the national economy across sectors."
On its meteoric rise, Brand Finance's Chairman & CEO David Haigh said ROSHN Group's exceptional rise to become Saudi Arabia's most valuable real estate brand in just five years reflects the power of purpose-led strategy and visionary execution.
"ROSHN Group is reshaping urban living in line with Saudi Vision 2030 through its integrated communities and innovative mixed-use developments, with a focus on sustainability and community investment. Its evolution into a multi-asset developer marks a bold new chapter, positioning the brand not only as a national champion, but as a regional leader with global relevance," he stated.

RTA announces urban project to upgrade Umm Suqeim Street
Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has announced an integrated urban project for the upgradation of Umm Suqeim Street, from its intersection with Jumeirah Street to Al Khail Road. The project is designed to enhance traffic flow in support of the emirate's comprehensive development, address the demands of urban expansion and population growth, and to improve the overall quality of life for both residents and visitors. It complements works currently underway to upgrade Umm Suqeim Street from its intersection with Al Khail Road to Emirates Road, ultimately enabling uninterrupted traffic flow from Jumeirah to Al Qudra Road over a total distance of 20km. The project goes beyond traditional road widening and development by integrating creative and aesthetic enhancements into the surrounding urban landscape. It features upgraded pedestrian walkways, a dedicated cycling track, and complete streets (boulevards), alongside vibrant urban spaces designed to foster community interaction and create inclusive, dynamic environments, said RTA in a statement. It also establishes a direct link between Mall of the Emirates Metro Station and nearby residential communities through targeted improvements that ensure smooth, integrated, and seamless access between these areas and the metro. The project forms part of a master plan developed by RTA to upgrade the road network in the area, including enhancements to Jumeirah Street, Al Wasl Street , and Al Safa Street, details of which will be announced in due course, it stated. Mattar Al Tayer, Director General, Chairman of the Board of Executive Directors of the RTA, said: "The upgrade of Umm Suqeim Street, from its intersection with Jumeirah Street to Al Khail Road, forms part of a master plan to develop the Umm Suqeim–Al Qudra corridor. " "This strategic route extends from its intersections with Jumeirah Street throughout to its intersections with Emirates Road to Al Qudra Road, serving key residential and development zones with a combined population exceeding two million," he stated. "The project enhances connectivity across four strategic transport corridors in Dubai - Sheikh Zayed Road, Al Khail Road, Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road, and Emirates Road. It will increase Umm Suqeim Street's capacity to 16,000 vehicles per hour in both directions, significantly improve traffic flow, and reduce travel time between Jumeirah Street and Al Khail Road from 20 minutes to just six," noted Al Tayer. "The upgraded corridor will directly serve vital residential and development areas, including Jumeirah, Umm Suqeim, Al Manara, Al Sufouh, Umm Al Sheif, Al Barsha, and Al Quoz; home to more than two million residents," he added. According to him, the project entails the upgrade of six key intersections along Umm Suqeim Street, specifically those with Jumeirah Street, Al Wasl Street, Sheikh Zayed Road, First Al Khail Street, Al Asayel Street, and Al Khail Road. The scope of work includes the construction of four bridges and three tunnels, with a total combined length of 4,100m. "At the intersection with Jumeirah Street, a tunnel with two lanes in each direction will be constructed, complemented by a signalised surface-level junction," said Al Tayer.
