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.
