LEADING real estate company Shaikhani Contracting says it aims to expand across the Gulf in order to cash in on an expected economic recovery across the region.

“These are exciting times for the Middle East’s construction industry, as witnessed by the presence of more than $1.3 trillion worth of projects across the area,” said Rizwan Shaikhani, managing director, Shaikhani Contracting.

“Construction firms across the region remain upbeat that growth will continue and that more projects will be coming. We are on the path towards recovery and development and this has prompted Shaikhani Contracting to implement a region-wide expansion plan that will not only help us grow but also consolidate our presence in the Middle East,” he adds.

Part of the Shaikhani Group, an international business conglomerate, Shaikhani Contracting says that the region’s bid towards recovery has created an influx of projects across all industries.

To capitalise on this trend, Shaikhani will roll out a strategic plan targeting growth and expansion in both the UAE and the rest of the region.

In line with this, the company plans to hire more engineers, technical and non-technical staff in order to offer regional customers a broader portfolio of high quality services.
