Doha: Barwa Real Estate Group has consistently contributed to the development processes carried out by the State, through various sustainable development projects that included residential real estate cities serving all segments of society, and commercial and multi-purpose projects. All the projects were characterised by creativity and integration, and covered all regions of the country to reach the west. This was aimed at keeping pace with the urban development plans in the areas of Dukhan and Zekreet in terms of housing and related utilities such as administrative, service, commercial, recreational and cosmetic facilities. 

Barwa’s projects also include the development of necessary infrastructure and services, which enhance the status of these industrial, residential and tourist areas. Barwa Real Estate Group’s projects in Dukhan and Zekreet will support the growth of the real estate sector and meet the actual needs of the real estate market. This confirms the vital role of Barwa Real Estate Group in supporting the projects and growth of the national economy, while diversifying its sources and achieving the Qatar National Vision 2030.

The Dukhan Housing and Dukhan Community Center projects cope with the strategic urban plan for the QP concession area in Dukhan since its inception. The development of the Dukhan Housing Project contributed to providing the area with about 1,860 different-sized housing units and villas, which were built as per international specifications that keep pace with the city’s modernity and cutting-edge appliances, and at the same time meet all the needs and aspirations of married and bachelor staff working there.

Dukhan Community Center also contains all facilities that support the well-being of residents in the area. The center contains sports facilities such as a bowling alley, an electronic games area, an indoor gym, and a multi-purpose gym, as well as recreational and cultural facilities such as a café and library. Moreover, it contains full operational and logistical facilities such as administrative offices, storage areas and maintenance rooms, in addition to the development of all infrastructure and landscaping works such as roads and greenspaces for the project, which spans an area of 9,633sqm.

Given the paramount development of the city, Souq Dukhan project was established with a modern design and integrated services to provide residents and visitors with a pioneering shopping experience in one of the most developed cities. The market includes 18 large-sized shops in addition to 10 administrative offices that meet the aspirations of the beneficiaries and consolidate the prestige of the project as a leading shopping center.

Due to the importance of the Zekreet tourist area, efforts continued to enrich this area with a mixed-use real estate project that meets the needs of residents and visitors. Souq Zekreet is strategically located near Dukhan Highway to be a prominent and distinctive landmark for the region. This project contains 40 retail units that offer a variety of commercial opportunities ranging from restaurants and shops to offer everything shoppers need in one place, in addition to 31 accommodations, as well as providing all integrated service facilities, parking lots, and many different services.

Along with the goals achieved by the projects to keep pace with community development in Dukhan and Zekreet, they also contributed to strengthening the assets of Barwa Group’s real estate portfolio to meet the aspirations of shareholders.

Waseef, a subsidiary of Barwa Real Estate, the leading Asset, Property and Facility Management services company, is in charge of marketing and managing the projects and providing all services to them.
Barwa Real Estate Group will continue to provide the real estate market with distinct and full-fledged projects that expand to cover all regions of the country, support the population and urban growth of the state and enable the Group to continue its growth journey.
