The company is aiming to establish a operating model positioning itself for rapid expansion in the luxury second homes market Dar Global announced it is working with AlixPartners to develop a roadmap for its global expansion goals. This follows a milestone year for Dar Global marked by the unveiling of ten luxury real estate projects valued at over US $1.9bn across international markets. The company is entering a new phase with plans for expansion across international markets, including KSA, UAE, Oman, Qatar, UK, USA, and Greece, within the next five years. The developer will be targeting sites and architectural pieces, while continuing to deliver experiences that blend with the local culture and landscape.

This includes benchmarking against international real estate developers, defining an optimal target operating model, and developing a detailed roadmap for implementation, but also encompasses evaluating strategic options for structuring global operations, creating a framework for communication between the company’s headquarter and international offices, and designing a fit-for-purpose corporate structure.
