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.
