Khor Khwair is an industrial zone located next to Saqr Port in the city of Ras Al Khaimah, United Arab Emirates (UAE). Located some 25km north of the city,[1] the zone contains marble and concrete manufacturing facilities as well as LPG processing and other industrial enterprises. Saqr Port was inaugurated on 17 September 1977 by the then-Ruler of Ras Al Khaimah, Sheikh Saqr bin Mohammed Al Qasimi - the day after, he attended a ceremony to mark the export of the first five million tons of rock from Ras Al Khaimah.[2]
