This industrial park will play an important role in the development of both the industrial and logistics sectors in Bahrain which will reflect in the economic growth of the country.”
CEO, Amin Al Arrayed, adds, “We are pleased to sign this agreement with Trident Warehousing to facilitate their operations in Bahrain, where they will be well-placed to take advantage of Bahrain’s strategic location and world-class logistics infrastructure.”
Manufacturing is a key component of Bahrain’s economic recovery plan.

There is an increasing demand for industrial facilities, and we are happy to have supported Edamah and Trident in this partnership.”
