Ma'an Development Company and Hadeed Emirates Construction sign MoU to build landmark metals factory in Ma'an

The MoU, signed by Mr. Samir Dabbas, CEO of Hadeed Emirates Construction, and Mr. Mohammad Turk, CEO of South Company for Construction and Development (SCCD), stipulates that Hadeed Emirates Construction is to establish the factory over 50,000 m2 of land.

The project will be the first of its kind in the Kingdom, and will cater to the growing construction and real estate sector in Jordan and the region.

The factory will be developed over two phases and will, upon its opening, include production lines requiring an operating staff of more than 250 employees, creating new job opportunities for the residents of Ma'an and boosting economic activity in the governorate.

Mr. Mohammad Turk, CEO of SCCD, commented during the signing:

'MDA aspires to become the regional hub for industrial investments and the manufacturing of construction materials.' Mr. Turk added, 'We are honored to be collaborating with Hadeed Emirates Construction and having them join as a new member of the 'MDA Industrial Park.' MDA seeks to continually focus its efforts in attracting new businesses and investors with its goal set to raise the quality of living in Ma'an and to assist the residents of the South of Jordan in achieving their ambitions.'

Established in 2001, Hadeed Emirates Construction currently has projects in the UAE of a total value exceeding Dhs500m.

The company specializes in the field of design, manufacturing and the supply of prefabricated metal structures.

Its portfolio includes projects such as the infrastructure and construction development of the Abu Dhabi Trade Centre in the Mussafah Industrial City, the Itihad Airlines building, the Jebel Ali International Airport, the Mussafah port, and the Zayed Port.

Consisting of four complementary clusters including a residential community, an industrial zone, a Hajj city, and a vocational training center, the Ma'an Development Area (MDA) is set to become a regional hub for industrial activity and a centre of excellence for vocational training, as well as a religious landmark for pilgrims on their way to the Holy cities, offering them the ideal environment for their rest, relaxation and prayer.

MDA will also be home to a thriving and self-sustained city providing its residents and visitors with a quality living and working environment to fulfill their potential.
