Quick Answer · Jebel Ali Free Zone (JAFZA)
Building a warehouse in Jebel Ali Free Zone (JAFZA) costs roughly AED 180–250 per sqft of GFA for a standard pre-engineered (PEB) steel shed, more for insulated logistics or cold-store facilities — typically AED 0.8M–7M depending on size. A warehouse build takes 6–16 months including design, the Jebel Ali Free Zone (JAFZA) zone NOC, Dubai Municipality permits and a Civil Defence fire approval. PEB steel frame, engineered heavy-duty slab, fixed price from a real BOQ, 3-year warranty.
After 800+ Dubai projects we see the same problems in Jebel Ali Free Zone (JAFZA) again and again. Here's what goes wrong — and how we fix every one.
Warehouse cost lives in the steel tonnage, slab spec and cladding. We price your shed line-by-line — PEB frame, slab, envelope, MEP — and fix it, so you can compare like for like, not vague rates.
An industrial build in Jebel Ali Free Zone (JAFZA) needs Dubai Municipality approval plus the zone/free-zone NOC, DEWA and a Civil Defence fire-system sign-off (heavier for high-pile storage). We run them in parallel so occupation isn't delayed.
An under-designed floor fails fast under point loads. We design the slab to the racking and forklift loading, with the right joints and power-floated finish.
PEB steel and insulated panels carry real lead times. We engineer and order early, and sequence erection so the programme holds.
