New Souq Al Haraj

The Souq Haraj project, is located opposite Barwa Village in Al Wakrah.The new Souq Haraj will replace the existing one located in Najma, a congested area in the city. Souq Haraj in Arabic means a market for used or second-hand goods but in practice it is a place where all household appliances (most of them new are available). These include furniture and furnishing, home décor items, electrical appliances, air-conditioners, fans, and carpets, among other things.

The new 83,592.10 square meter complex will have 314 outlets available for rent with 844 parking lots. The total built up area for the shops will be approx. 25149 square meters.

The need for a new Souq Haraj was felt as the country’s population has been increasing and there was pressure on the current market in Najma. It is located in a congested area so trucks moving in and out cause traffic snarls especially on Thursdays and Fridays.

The Souq is expected to provide a number of services and will have shops, restaurants and cafes, services centres and mosques. It will have parking lots for the visitors as well as the shopowners. The Souq will have modern buildings to meet the need of visitors. The location of the new Souq will be easy to access by the residents of Al Wakra and Um Saeed.

A multi-lane access road will link the upcoming Souq Haraj to F-Ring Road in such a way that vehicles coming from and going to Al Thumama, Abu Hamour and Al Wakrah would not lead to congestion near Barwa Village.
