📋 Tender Overview
Scope of Work:
Construction of Agri Hub in Dubai.
Description:
A new agritourism project in Dubai's desert is slated to become the biggest in the world of its type and create 10,000 jobs. Agri Hub by URB will promote a new experience, with food security, entertainment and adventure. Agri Hub is a highly attractive and activity-rich environment, which will transform Dubai into the world’s best rural visitor attraction in the world. Local farmers will have space to sell their products directly from their farms, while offering a new eco-friendly shopping, dining and edutainment experience for visitors. Beyond becoming a new tourism experience in the countryside and wilderness of Dubai, the project will also promote greater health, well-being, and prosperity for rural local inhabitants. Some of the project’s environmental features include 100 per cent renewable energy, 100 per cent water recycling, bio-saline agriculture, green transit systems and on-site zero waste management. Ultimately, it will serve as an innovative blueprint for decarbonised rural tourism hubs of the future. A few locations are being studied for feasibility, with the exact location to be confirmed in 2024. Construction is due to begin in 2025 and be completed by 2030. URB provides development management and master planning services, with a focus on net zero sustainable cities.
