DIP Holding is focusing on upgrading infrastructure, increasing occupancy and attracting more subtenants within Dubai Investments Park as part of its growth plans for 2027.

Speaking in an interview, Omar AlMesmar, Chief Executive Officer of DIP Holding, said the company's immediate priority is to strengthen its existing operations.

"Currently, we are mainly focusing on the existing Dubai Investments Park," AlMesmar said.

He explained that improving infrastructure would help the company attract additional subtenants and increase occupancy across the development.

DIP Holding operates Dubai Investments Park, a 23-million-square-metre development that provides long-term ground leases and related services for industrial, logistics, residential and commercial activities.

AlMesmar's comments indicate that the company is prioritizing growth within its existing development.

The company's broader growth strategy includes rental repricing, increasing subleasing fees and repositioning plots for higher-value uses, according to its official statements.

AlMesmar said the company was confident in the strength of its business after more than 25 years of operations.

He described the company's development over that period as a demonstration of its resilience despite challenging market conditions.
