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.
