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.
