Real estate & development

Integrated Residential Suburb Development — Near Damascus International Airport

SyriaReal estate & development

An opportunity to participate in developing an integrated residential suburb on a fully privately-owned 282-dunum (28.2-hectare) contiguous parcel near Damascus City and Damascus International Airport. The project is an organized urban community of 169 buildings and 5,408 apartments, with an internal road network, services, amenities, green areas and full infrastructure. It is structured through a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) registered under the new Investment Law to capture customs and tax exemptions, with an estimated total cost of ~USD 145–196 million against projected revenue of ~USD 260–324 million over a phased 5–7 year build-out.

Industrial cities & zones

Murjan Industrial City — An Integrated Industrial City in Rural Damascus, Syria

SyriaIndustrial cities & zones

A strategic opportunity to establish a fully integrated industrial city spanning ~1.5 million m² (1,500 dunums) in the Murjan area of Rural Damascus, developed over six successive phases (~250,000 m² each). The city offers ready-to-operate industrial units and fully serviced land plots for direct sale or long-term lease, within international-standard infrastructure and a pivotal logistics location ~35 km from Damascus and close to the Daraa–Suwayda highways and the southern border crossings. The project addresses a severe gap in organized industrial supply (≈75% unmet demand), with a supportive legal framework expected under Syria's modern Investment Law (tax and customs exemptions).

SyriaEducation

An investment opportunity in Syria's private-education sector: developing a modern private school with capacity for up to 3,000 students in the Jaramana district of Rural Damascus, targeting middle- and upper-income families. The project is structured as a land-for-equity partnership with the owners of a licensed 21,500 m² plot, with a valid, renewable educational license and a licensed built-up area of approximately 14,000 m². A phased operating model starts at 500 students and grows annually toward full capacity, with USD-indexed annual tuition.

Edible oil manufacturing

Integrated Sunflower Oil Crushing, Refining & Bottling Facility — Syria

SyriaEdible oil manufacturing

An investment opportunity in Syria's food-industry sector: establishing an integrated facility for crushing sunflower seeds, refining and bottling the oil, plus producing sunflower meal (animal feed) as a high-value by-product. The project addresses a structural deficit in Syria's edible-oils market — currently met by importing more than 250,000 tons per year — and is positioned to capture import-substitution demand from the first year of commercial operation. The required capital is USD 20 million as the Investor's full cash contribution for a 60% stake in the Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV), while the Operating Partner contributes land, license, technical and operational know-how and the distribution network for 40%. Per the validated financial model: expected annual revenue of USD 63.35 million, EBITDA of USD 13.85 million and net profit of USD 10.5 million, with a 28%–32% IRR and a payback of about two years at the project level.

Mining & quarrying

Integrated Marble Quarrying & Processing Project — Syrian Coast

SyriaMining & quarrying

An investment opportunity in Syria's marble sector: establishing an organized company that operates four marble quarries on and around the Syrian coast, combining the sale of raw blocks with the production of cut-and-polished slabs and tiles. The phase-one model ramps up the quarries gradually and uses nearby cutting workshops to reduce risk before building a large in-house facility, with each marble type clearly classified by color, quality and use — targeting the local market first (Damascus, then Homs, then Aleppo) before expanding.
