UAE. Sharjah Airport Authority (SAA) has awarded the 15-year contract to manage all vehicle parking to Saudi-based National Parking Company (Mawgif). The business was previously managed in-house by the airport company.
The partners said that Mawgif will provide “new solutions for parking at the airport using the latest technology and systems, offering new parking fee payment options in all locations and managing the parking area for airport staff”.
SAA Chairman His Excellency Ali Salim Al Midfa and Mawgif Director Mohamed Al Musbahi signed the agreement at SAA’s headquarters in the presence of SAA Director HE Sheikh Faisal bin Saoud Al Qassimi, Mawgif Group Business Development Director Andrew Perrier and other officials from both organisations.
“At Sharjah Airport, we strive to provide a comfortable travel experience for all passengers. We partner with organisations that meet our requirements in terms of innovation and experience to ensure added value for the users of Sharjah Airport,” said HE Ali Salim Al Midfa.
He added: “We are pleased to partner with Mawgif, a pioneer in airport parking solutions, and we are positive that our new partnership will benefit our customers by enhancing performance and efficiency and helping to improve the travel experience.”
Mohamed Al Musbahi said: “Parking is the passenger’s first and last experience at the airport. We look forward to working with our partners at Sharjah Airport Authority to upgrade this experience in a way that enhances the passenger journey and reflects the culture of the Emirate of Sharjah by using our expertise and the latest technology and systems in this field.”
Founded in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in 2001, National Parking Company (Mawgif) manages parking in over ten cities and has branches in Saudi Arabia, Jordan and UAE.
