Oman is positioning itself as a dependable and cost-effective base for Indian businesses planning to expand into the GCC countries. The country highlights its geographical proximity, efficient connectivity, and cultural compatibility with India as key advantages for companies seeking a regional presence in the Middle East.
At the centre of Oman’s investment pitch is Khazaen Economic City, a flagship integrated economic and logistics hub located near Muscat. The city is being developed to support a wide range of industries with ready infrastructure, clear policy incentives, and a supportive administrative setup.
Opportunities in Khazaen span across sectors such as food processing, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, logistics, textiles and factory outlets, light manufacturing, and export-oriented small and medium enterprises (SMEs). Land availability, efficient regulations, and a skilled workforce make it an attractive destination for Indian firms looking to set up operations in the region.
In a show of diplomatic warmth, Oman extended birthday wishes to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, reaffirming its commitment to strengthening ties with India. The gesture reflects the growing partnership between the two countries and underlines the strategic importance Oman places on its relationship with India, both economically and culturally.
With its stable investment environment, logistical advantages, and a clear focus on attracting foreign businesses, Oman is emerging as a natural choice for Indian companies seeking regional expansion. For Indian businesses planning their next move in the Middle East, Oman offers both opportunity and accessibility.
