Oman’s Industrial Sector Gateway

The Industrial Sector, in line with Oman Vision 2040, aims to support the production of quality Products and Services that contribute to the development of the economy and enhance its competitiveness. The Omani Industrial Strategy seeks to enhance the contribution of the Industrial Sector to the Gross Domestic Product and attract Investments. The Government of Oman is working to drive the growth of the Industrial Sector, which is a critical factor for economic diversification in the upcoming five-year plans. The sector's contribution to the Gross Domestic Product grew from 0.3% in 1970 to 10% in 2019, supported by the Industrial Base, Laws, Legislation, Incentives, Facilities, Large Investments, and Economic and free zones.



In order to support the industrial sector and enhance its role in the national economy, the Industrial Innovation Academy, in collaboration with its sector partners, has been working on developing strategic programs aimed at improving supply chains, increasing added value, and strengthening the industrial sector's workforce.

The RABT platform is a significant initiative developed by the Industrial Innovation Academy. Its primary goal is to promote the growth and expansion of local industrial Products and establish connections to consumers and raw material Suppliers. This initiative aims to have a positive impact on the trade balance of the Sultanate of Oman. It also aligns with the government's economic diversification efforts through the promotion of In-Country Value.
