MENA Industrial Building Conference & Exhibition

Building future-ready industrial & logistics infrastructure aligned with Vision 2030

Saudi Edition. 28-29 October 2025, Riyadh

ABOUT THE EVENT

MIBEC is Saudi Arabia's premier event on design and construction of future-ready industrial and logistics facilities.
The Saudi industrial and logistics sectors are on the cusp of transformative growth, driven by the Kingdom's Vision 2030, the National Industrial Strategy, and the Made in Saudi programme. With 410 new industrial licenses issued in the first four months of 2024 and ambitious plans to increase the number of factories from the current 11,800 to 36,000 by 2035, Saudi Arabia is rapidly expanding its industrial footprint. Complementing this growth is the development of 59 logistics centers across the country, covering over 100 million square meters, positioning Saudi Arabia as a global logistics hub.

MIBEC is the premier forum connecting key players across the logistics and industrial building value chain. This essential gathering will unite facility owners, developers, investors, contractors, architects, engineers, equipment suppliers, supply chain executives, and government officials to cover the entire spectrum of what it takes to build world-class industrial buildings in Saudi Arabia.

Don’t miss your chance to be part of this pivotal event, where you’ll engage with decision-makers, explore innovative solutions, and capitalise on the immense opportunities in Saudi Arabia’s burgeoning industrial building sector.

MARKET DRIVERS

Vision 2030
Vision 2030, the National Industrial Strategy, and ongoing giga projects are fueling a significant industrial revolution. With $110 billion allocated across 900 projects, the demand for modern logistics and industrial facilities is soaring.
Rapid Industrialisation
Saudi Arabia's plan to increase the number of factories from 11,800 to 36,000 by 2035 is driving significant demand for new industrial facilities, including manufacturing zones and supporting infrastructure.
Logistics Growth
As part of its ambition to become a global logistics hub and meet the growing needs of the industrial, retail, and e-commerce sectors, the Kingdom plans to construct 59 logistics centers, spanning over 100 million sqm, by 2030.
Localisation Focus
The Kingdom is making significant strides in localising promising industries, with plans on track to achieve 30% localisation in the pharmaceutical industry and 20% in defence and military production by 2025.
Sustainable Development
Sustainability is a key pillar of Vision 2030. Industrial and logistics facilities are being designed with energy efficiency and eco-friendly materials, aligning with the Kingdom’s sustainability goals.
Tech-Driven Transformation
The adoption of advanced technologies and Industry 4.0 practices is reshaping the industrial landscape, requiring modern, tech-enabled logistics and manufacturing facilities.
Surge in e-Commerce
The growth of e-commerce in Saudi Arabia, now valued at $10 billion in 2023 and projected to reach $14.9 billion by 2028, has spurred significant demand for smaller, centrally located last-mile logistics and storage facilities.
Supply-demand imbalance
Warehouse occupancy in Saudi Arabia has reached a record 97%, underscoring soaring demand for logistics spaces. This surge highlights the urgent need for expanding modern, high-quality facilities to meet growing market demands.
