Khalifa Economic Zones Abu Dhabi (KEZAD) Group has signed a 50-year land lease agreement with Singapore-based tech innovator SINGAUTO, marking the launch of a major investment project in KEZAD Area A.
The agreement paves the way for the development of a 100,000-square-metre smart logistics facility, supported by almost AED 100 million (~US$ 28 million) in committed investment.
The new facility will focus on green logistics innovation, with particular emphasis on the production of intelligent refrigerated vehicles aimed at transforming the region’s cold-chain logistics landscape.
The site will integrate SINGAUTO’s latest smart technologies and is expected to begin operations with a team of over 100 logistics and automotive experts, each bringing more than 15 years of industry experience.

He highlighted that this collaboration underscores the shared ambition with SINGAUTO to drive forward sustainable transportation and high-performance cold-chain systems across the region.
SINGAUTO CEO Chen Xuefeng expressed confidence in KEZAD as a growth platform, noting that the integrated automotive ecosystem offers the infrastructure and support necessary to scale production and meet rising demand for eco-friendly, smart logistics solutions.
The agreement forms part of KEZAD Group’s broader plan to create a fully integrated automotive and logistics hub, offering state-of-the-art infrastructure, strategic connectivity, and a business-friendly environment.
