The
three-storey development, which
makes up Phase One of the park,
is already fully let, with 118
manufacturers and thirty retailers
operating there. As the park is
an extension of the Jebel Ali
Free Zone, the manufactures and
retailers are able to benefit
from lower operating costs, and
in turn this gives the opportunity
to compete in international markets.
The
exterior of the park reflects
the Arabic architectural heritage
of the region, while inside
it is spacious, cool, clean
and comfortable.
The
shops are arranged around a
central square where an open-plan
French Connection coffee shop
gives you the opportunity to
sit and soak up the atmosphere.
There are well appointed bathrooms,
traditional display cabinets,
and a museum giving the history
of the Emirates heritage in
producing quality jewellery
products.
The
park has attracted leading jewellery
manufacturers from around the
world, and all manufacturing
units to supply gold and diamond
jewellery to the shops.
It
is not just yellow and white
gold that is available here,
as Prestige Palace at the park
brings purple gold to the Middle
East for the first time.
Pinctada
Pearls can also be found located
close to the coffee shop, and
their smart premises allow them
to showcase their exquisite
pearls. You can view black pearls
from Tahiti, and pinky white
and creamy white Australian
South Sea pearls. Pinctada only
stock salt-water pearls, which
are of a much superior quality
and have a thicker nacre coating.
Because
of its superb location at the
intersection of the Sheikh Zayed
Road, the park will prove to
be popular not only to nationals
and expats, but also to the
tourist trade. All the beach
hotel visitors will be able
to reach the park easily and
quickly, and ample parking spaces
re available. The park will
enable people to see how jewellery
is history of the Emirates.
With
its own special hallmark on
the jewellery made here, the
park can ensure the quality
and originality of its products
to its customers.
This
is just the first phase of the
Gold and Diamond Park, whose
facilities on completion will
make it one of the worlds principle
centers for the manufacture
of gold and diamond jewellery
of the highest international
quality. |
