Jeddah Construction Market Trends
Increase in Commercial Construction is dominating the Market
Saudi Arabia’s second city is undergoing a significant transformation as Vision 2030 giga-projects change the face of many districts, including Marafy and Alarous by Roshn, Sadayem by the National Housing Project, and – controversially – Jeddah Central.
The Jeddah Central, a company owned by the Public Investment Fund, wants to make south Jeddah look entirely different. Six districts are envisaged, including the sports stadium, a man-built canal, an oceanarium and coral farm, a marina, a museum, or an opera house, to be filled with luxury tourism and accommodation.
Two museums are planned – a renovation of the old Bab Al-Bunt Museum by Jeddah port, to be known as the Red Sea Museum and housing works of art, and Jeddah Central Museum, inside an old desalination plant, intended as an industrial heritage site.
Jawharat Jeddah Mall will be one of the modern centers in the city of Jeddah, which aims to establish a diversified center as a new and integrated destination for entertainment and shopping with the latest international brands. Its strategic location, its proximity to the main areas of the city and the proposed land area of 170,746 square meters, a GLA of 87,145 square meters, an entertainment area of 17,475 square meters, and more than 200 stores by Cenomi Centres are distinguished.

The new Jeddah to Shanghai, Ningbo, and Nansha routes in China also connect with Singapore. The new service, with a capacity of more than 30,000 containers, will employ nine ships, increasing the position of Jeddah Islamic Port as the first reshipment hub in the Red Sea.
In December 2023, In Saudi Arabia, EDECS announced that it had been awarded significant infrastructure and road works for the Jeddah South Container Terminal with DP World Jeddah.
