Arcapita Group Holdings Limited, the global alternative investment firm, has officially launched Lintara Properties, a dedicated real estate asset manager, developer, and investment advisor focused on key regional markets including Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Bahrain.
Arcapita currently manages over USD 1 billion in industrial real estate assets across the GCC, with a tenant portfolio that includes prominent global and regional companies such as DSV, Obeikan, and Iron Mountain.
“The launch of Lintara Properties marks a pivotal step in advancing Arcapita’s position as one of the region’s leading investors in the industrial and logistics real estate sector,” said Hisham Abdulrahman Al Raee, Chief Executive Officer of Arcapita. “By combining institutional discipline with deep local expertise, Lintara is uniquely positioned to scale with purpose, drive transformative value, and support the region’s evolving economic priorities. This strategic expansion allows us to capture high-growth industrial development opportunities that perfectly complement our established core industrial strategy.”
Lintara is set to play a central role in providing asset management and development services to Arcapita’s current and future industrial real estate funds in the region. With this structure in place, Lintara aims to offer investors and tenants enhanced scale and market reach, supporting rapid growth and strategic expansion across the GCC.
“At Lintara, we see real estate not just as infrastructure, but as a catalyst for economic progress, helping businesses across the region thrive,” said Isa Husam Al Khalifa, Chief Executive Officer of Lintara Properties. “We combine strategic thinking with on-the-ground execution to deliver tailored solutions at scale. Our promise is simple: to turn our partners’ vision into reality through operational excellence and earned trust.”
Lintara launches with a robust pipeline of new industrial parks in strategic locations such as Saudi Arabia and the UAE. Its operational remit spans the full real estate value chain, from initial concept and design through to construction, completion, and handover, ensuring the development of high-quality, market-relevant industrial assets.
Beyond asset and development management, Lintara will also provide strategic advisory services to investors. These services will focus on unlocking portfolio potential through targeted value-add initiatives, such as securing long-term leases, attracting high-quality tenants, and optimising asset performance for long-term returns.
The establishment of Lintara marks a significant milestone in Arcapita’s real estate strategy, aligning deep local market knowledge with global best practices in governance, performance, and asset enhancement. It also supports Arcapita’s broader objective of managing assets that contribute to economic transformation across the region — in line with initiatives such as Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 and the National Industrial Development and Logistics Program (NIDLP).
Lintara will be led by CEO Isa Al Khalifa, who brings decades of experience in real estate investment and development, complemented by a management team with extensive regional and international expertise.
Arcapita’s industrial real estate strategy in the GCC began in 2010 with the launch of dedicated investment funds. Since then, the firm has built a diversified portfolio of assets leased to a wide mix of blue-chip multinationals, regional leaders, and local businesses. Today, Arcapita stands as one of the region’s foremost investors in industrial real estate, with a portfolio valued at over USD 1 billion, comprising more than 3.5 million square feet across 30+ properties and over 80 tenants.
