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.
