Huarui SmartLink Invests in Abu Dhabi, UAE Smart Logistics Park Holding Platform
In Oct 2024, Huarui SmartLink completed an investment in Abu Dhabi, UAE Smart Logistics Park Holding Platform through an Infrastructure Acquisition transaction, with committed capital of AED 950M. The asset is currently valued at AED 3.1B (2025 Valuation), and has become one of the firm's key tracked opportunities within its global multi-asset allocation framework.
Re-export trade, cross-border e-commerce, and regional manufacturing reshoring drove strong demand for premium warehousing and cold-chain logistics assets in the Gulf. Based on its assessment of industry trends, valuation levels, and market liquidity, the team continues to deepen research coverage and post-investment monitoring around this opportunity.
Planned partial exit in 2028 via REIT conversion alongside follow-on capital from a sovereign partner. In parallel, the investment also uses rooftop solar, smart energy management, and low-emission transport scheduling to improve logistics efficiency and sustainability. This remains consistent with Huarui SmartLink's investment approach centered on long-term thinking, balanced risk-adjusted returns, and sustainable value creation.
