Project Qatar 2009: Seize Exciting Investment Opportunities at the Heart of a Fast-Moving International Construction Market

Thriving Qatar Construction Sector Draws Strong Investment from Leading International Construction Firms

Qatar’s construction sector is expanding rapidly, propelled by the country’s powerful economy, a strong tourist industry, and a flourishing real estate sector. Large-scale international construction investment is flowing into the country. Everywhere, multi-billion-dollar development projects are underway, or in the pipeline. Among the most internationally-renowned are: the $5.5 billion New Doha International Airport; the $5 billion Lusail real estate project; a $5 billion tourist project in al-Khor; the $2.5 billion Energy City; the $2.5 billion man-made Pearl Island; a $2 billion, 68km causeway linking Qatar and neighboring Bahrain; a $1.2 billion leisure city in the capital Doha; and 180 high-rise buildings. Many other ambitious projects are planned. The rapid expansion of Qatar’s construction sector, along with foreign-investor-friendly laws and regulations, including generous financial incentives and tax breaks, as well as foreign real estate ownership rights, are attracting powerful international investment from renowned global development companies. In the years to come, Qatar is set to be a magnet for leading international construction sector investors. The country’s investment potential is huge. Demand for the whole spectrum of building materials and technology is sky-rocketing.

Strong Tourism Sector Expansion Draws Hotel & Leisure Sector Investment; Ambitious Development Projects Planned

Over the next few years, Qatar expects tourist arrivals to increase by a powerful 150%. The driving force behind this strong tourism sector expansion is a government plan to develop tourism in Qatar as an essential component of an ambitious economic diversification drive. Qatar’s hotel industry expects the number of hotel rooms in the country to grow by 300% as a result of the tourism industry push. Qatar’s own population is also growing fast. Together, Qatar’s expanding tourism sector and growing housing unit demands are fuelling an unprecedented construction sector expansion which is attracting top-name international investors and a steady flow of high-power investment. The country is full of internationally-acclaimed multi-billion-dollar development projects. International real estate companies are billing Qatar as a top location and can barely keep up with client demand. In the next few years, Qatar’s hotel industry is going to require dozens of new luxury hotels, to keep up with the increase in tourist arrivals. This in turn is creating growing demand for a complete range of building materials, equipment, technology, systems and machinery.
