Manama : Nouf Abdulrahman Jamsheer, Chairperson of the Government Land Investment Committee and Undersecretary for Research and Projects at the Office of the Prime Minister, announced the launch of 23 new investment opportunities through the Government Land Investment Platform in the largest batch offered since the platform’s launch.
She noted that this expansion reflects the increasing utilisation of government assets to support economic development, enhance partnerships with the private sector, and advance projects that meet citizens’ aspirations across the Kingdom of Bahrain’s regions and governorates.
Jamsheer emphasised that this initiative is part of a strategic approach to attracting high value investments, creating new opportunities, and enhancing private sector contributions alongside the public sector in projects with a sustainable economic impact. The newly offered opportunities allow investors and developers to utilise government land for agricultural, commercial, educational, and technological development through transparent and competitive mechanisms, optimising land use and further developing Bahrain’s food security sector.
She highlighted that the opportunities include a commercial property belonging to the Rashid Equestrian and Horseracing Club in Hamad Town, covering 6,232 square metres, designated for a commercial complex. Additionally, 19 agricultural properties under the Ministry of Municipalities Affairs and Agriculture in Buri and Hoorat A’ali, with sizes ranging from 5,616.2 to 8,251.3 square metres, have been allocated to support agricultural activities and encourage investment in this vital sector. The bidding period for these properties will remain open until May 11.
Further investment opportunities include two plots in Al Qurain and Al Zallaq in the Southern Governorate, each spanning 40,000 square metres, allocated for data centre development projects. Additionally, an educational investment plot in Arad, Muharraq Governorate, covering 12,451 square metres, has been designated for the development of a new school. The bidding process for these investment opportunities under the Ministry of Finance and National Economy will continue until June 11.
