The OAMC five-year plan outlines the company’s purpose, vision and mission and presents a strategic roadmap that will lead to the achievement of these goals, the timeline of which is between 2016 and 2020.

The purpose is called “Growing gateways to beauty and opportunity” and was developed to work alongside the Sultanate’s growing tourism, transport and logistics sectors.
