Al-Balushi explained that Madayn offers exceptional incentives to investors in Al-Suwaiq Industrial City, the most prominent of which is exemption from the rental value for two years and then a reduction in the rental value by 50% for the following three years, with the aim of making it an attractive destination for local and international investments, especially with the availability of modern infrastructure and easy government services provided by Madayn.
