Dubai South Inaugurates JAS Middle East’s New Regional Headquarters
Dubai South, the region’s largest urban development centred on aviation, logistics, and real estate, has officially inaugurated the new regional headquarters of JAS Middle East, a global logistics and supply chain leader. The opening marks a major milestone in regional logistics expansion and further reinforces Dubai South's growing prominence as a logistics powerhouse.
The inauguration ceremony was attended by key dignitaries and senior executives, including H.E. Edoardo Napoli, Consul General of the Republic of Italy in Dubai; Biagio Bruni, Founder and Chairman of JAS Worldwide; Mohsen Ahmad, CEO of the Logistics District at Dubai South; and Erwin Wittemaier, Area VP of JAS Middle East.
The new 19,170-square-meter "Build-to-Suit" facility is designed with a strong focus on sustainability, operational efficiency, and innovation. The environmentally conscious infrastructure includes solar panels to offset energy costs and achieve ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) compliance. The facility is tailored to meet diverse logistics requirements across the Middle East and positions JAS to better serve its growing regional customer base.
Equipped with racked and bulk storage capabilities, the facility also features three temperature-controlled chambers, 12 loading bays with dock levellers and roller shutter doors, and an apex height exceeding 14 meters. The office space spans two levels, reflecting a modern and functional working environment. It is also built per the latest fire safety regulations, reinforcing a commitment to both safety and innovation.
Speaking on the occasion, Mohsen Ahmad commented:
“We are pleased to attend the official opening of JAS Middle East’s new headquarters at Dubai South. This new facility will cater to the UAE and the wider Middle East region through best-in-class logistics solutions. We are proud to see the Logistics District flourishing with global industry leaders such as JAS, recognising the strategic advantages we offer to support their growth and expansion. With its cutting-edge design and ESG-compliant infrastructure, this facility enhances Dubai South's role in shaping the future of aviation and logistics in the region.”
Biagio Bruni added:
“This facility is a testament to our focus on innovation, sustainability, and excellent service. We are proud to strengthen our presence in this dynamic region and look forward to continuing to support our customers with tailored and innovative logistics solutions.”
Strategically located, Dubai South’s Logistics District offers seamless access to Jebel Ali Port through a bonded logistics corridor, enhancing the efficiency of trade and transportation. The district includes multiple specialised zones, such as EZDubai—a dedicated e-commerce free zone—and a Contract Logistics Zone, along with direct links to Al Maktoum International Airport’s cargo terminals.
The inauguration reaffirms Dubai South’s commitment to facilitating global trade and logistics through state-of-the-art infrastructure and strategic partnerships.
