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. |
