The Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Water Resources has awarded a contract to construct a fish landing centre in the village of Bimmah, located within the Wilayat of Qurayat in the Muscat Governorate. The project forms part of the ministry’s broader food security strategy aimed at enhancing the infrastructure supporting the fishing industry.

This new facility is expected to bolster the local fishing sector by providing fishermen with improved access to landing and processing services. The development underscores the government’s commitment to advancing the sector’s capabilities and sustainability.

By investing in such infrastructure improvements, authorities aim to support the livelihoods of fishermen in the region while contributing to national food security objectives. The initiative reflects ongoing efforts to modernize key components of the supply chain and reinforce the role of fisheries within Oman’s economy.
