Memon Investments, a leading Dubai-based property developer and part of the international business conglomerate, the Memon Group of Companies, has kicked off the initial construction works on the US$ 40 million Gardenia I & II project, located in Jumeirah Village.

“The property sector is undergoing a tentative period due to uncertainties in regional and global economies. We are thus pleased with the warm response this project has received, which provides us with the motivation to fast-track development. The uniqueness and quality that we have designed into Gardenia I & II will add to Jumeirah Village’s growing reputation as a highly desirable mixed-use destination. Our strategic partnership with International Foundation Group also affirms our commitment to maintaining the highest development standards for this project,” said Rizwan Shaikhani.

Located centrally within Jumeirah Village, near the Cultural Centre and the renowned Central Park, Gardenia I & II is splendidly designed and meticulously crafted to offer residents a charming yet authentic Mediterranean experience. Incorporating a mixture of residential, commercial and retail spaces, the project features residential apartments including studios, one-bedroom and two-bedroom units and loft apartments, with retail units on the ground floor. The 5-storey residential development has been designed by Dimensions Engineering Consultants (DEC) and incorporates stuccoed walls, tiled roofs, rustic arches, solid wrought iron balcony grills, carved doors, ornamental spiral columns, marble flooring and thematic and floral designs to create a Mediterranean ambience.

“It is critical that the proper foundations are put in place during the initial phases of property construction, which is why we have been chosen to perform shoring and excavation for this major project. Our extensive technical expertise ensures the creation of an understructure that meets Memon’s strict quality and scheduling standards. We look forward to working on this high-profile property and are confident that we can easily meet Memon’s completion schedule,” said Dr. Khalil Charif.

An integrated master community spread across 811 hectares, Jumeirah Village is a mixed-use development that when complete will comprise of residential and business units, retail outlets, international schools, hospitals, shopping malls, connected parks and boulevards, sports fields, mosques, cafes and restaurants. Developed by Nakheel, one of the leading developers in Dubai, the project is 20 minutes from the Dubai International Airport, five minutes from JAFZA, and 50 minutes from the Abu Dhabi airport. The combination of strategic location and the conveniences of a luxury community project have attracted Memon Investments to choose Jumeirah Village as the home for its latest projects.
