Silk Road International Investment was established in 2023 as a strategic industrial investment and development company jointly initiated by Chinese and Saudi shareholders, with the support of the China Building Materials Market Association and the Saudi Building Materials Market Association.

The company focuses on the development and operation of specialized industrial cities for the building materials sector while strengthening industrial and investment cooperation between the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the People's Republic of China.

Building on the growing economic partnership between the two countries, and aligned with both the Belt and Road Initiative and Saudi Vision 2030, the company develops strategic industrial projects aimed at technology transfer, industrial localization, and strengthening value chains in the construction sector.

Silk Road International Investment serves as the master developer and general operator of the National Smart Industrial City for Green Building Materials, overseeing strategic planning, investor engagement, industrial partnerships, and the operational development of the project.

The company also works to establish an integrated industrial cooperation ecosystem linking trade, services, and value chains while promoting a “Two Countries – Two Industrial Parks” model of collaboration that enhances resource sharing and coordinated industrial development between Saudi Arabia and China.
