KSA holds investments opportunities for construction sector

Riyadh October 18th, 2015: The Kingdom of Saudi Arabias (KSA) construction industry is expected to continue its growth for the next few years, fuelled by massive construction projects, particularly around social and transport infrastructure that offer multi-billion-Saudi Riyals opportunities to contractors and investors. The local market is set to witness a pick-up in project activity supported by increasing private and public investments, boosting the projects numbers and values. Currently, the KSAs general real estate sector is valued at SAR 2250 billion, while infrastructure amounts to SAR 1312.25 billion and on-going projects represent 82.4 per cent of total construction activity, showing the continuous development and growth.
