CONSTRUCTION NEWS

Dubai CommerCity, a free zone focused on digital commerce, has launched a second expansion phase worth over AED1.8 billion ($490 million) that will add more than 91,000 sq m of office, retail and logistics space across the free zone’s business, social and logistics clusters.

The region's first free zone dedicated to digital commerce, Dubai CommerCity is a joint venture between Dubai Integrated Economic Zones Authority and Dubai developer Wasl. 

The expansion, scheduled for delivery between the first quarter of 2027 and the fourth quarter of 2028, comes as demand from e-commerce and technology companies grows.

It builds upon Dubai CommerCity’s continued record levels of demand, with occupancy reaching nearly 96% across its office, logistics, and retail spaces. 

This reflects the destination’s growing appeal among digital commerce and technology companies, while underscoring the need to further expand its integrated ecosystem of business facilities, commercial offerings, and specialised logistics services.

The Phase Two will deliver a series of projects across Dubai CommerCity’s three key districts: the Business Cluster, Logistics Cluster, and Social Cluster. 

Together, these will add more than 91,000 sqm of new office space, increasing the free zone’s capacity and expanding its integrated ecosystem to serve companies operating in digital commerce and technology.

Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Chairman of DIEZ, said: "Phase Two of Dubai CommerCity comes at a time when Dubai continues to demonstrate its ability to grow and expand despite the changes and challenges facing the global economy." 

"This expansion reflects the growing investor confidence in Dubai’s economic ecosystem and its ability to attract high-quality investments while providing an advanced economic infrastructure that responds to rapid shifts in emerging sectors. It aligns with the objectives of the Dubai Economic Agenda, D33, and further strengthens the emirate’s position as a global hub for the digital economy and future commerce, while serving as a platform for companies to grow and expand across regional and international markets," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
