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.
