underground parking and a dedicated shuttle bus
service, will provide easy transport around the city.
There will be a network of covered pedestrian colon-
nades and a main promenade along the bank of the
White Nile. All of this comes together to create the
ideal location to work, play, and stay.
The ultimate vision of Al Sunut Development is to
turn this prime land into an alluring and rather en-
chanting panorama reflecting the exquisiteness of
the sensational city of Khartoum.
Al Sunut follows principle of pioneering the “superb”,
the “sensible” and the “sustainable” for the public it
serves. The company is committed to the welfare of
the community, the satisfaction of its customers and
the overall growth of its employees, as the Managing
Director explains the way Al Sunut defines its activi-
ties: “we invest in people and people invest in us”. Al
Sunut regards its current innovative White Nile de-
velopment as a platform to advance the concept of
quality modern infrastructure development and man-
agement supported by state-of-the-art autonomous
governance solutions. Its philosophy is that; through
collaboration, novelty, creativity and professional-
ism, the pillars of the company, Al Sunut is posed
to meet challenges while seizing opportunities for
growth.
In order to do so, it is actively seeking contractors
to set up the roads, lightings, and get the different
machines needed. It already has partnerships with
contractors from Italy, the UK, Saudi Arabia, and
China, amongst others.
“We need to find high quality suppliers to build the
infrastructures on our lands. The problem is that
contractors don’t come to Sudan. They are afraid
of security issues, restrictions on capital investment
and of the conflict in Darfur. But the truth is that very
profitable business can be made here in Sudan”.
