Amman, Jordan, (June 2007- Luxury lifestyle provider and the region's leading private sector master developer, DAMAC Properties, has further strengthened its presence in the country by recently launching the fifth masterpiece project – ‘Business gate’. This latest project, 'Business Gate', an 8 storey commercial tower was launched after its first commercial tower 'Business Heights’, a 20 storey tower to be constructed in Jordan’s Abdali master planned development.
With the Business heights project, DAMAC became the first real-estate company to launch commercial tower in the Abdali area. DAMAC was also the first to introduce residential projects within that area with the launch of ‘The Heights’, a 35 storey tower at last year.
“We are confident about the Jordan market as our existing projects, 'The Heights', ‘The Lofts’, ‘The Courtyard', 'Business Heights' and 'Business Gate' received a tremendous response. With our wealth of global expertise, we are confident that our valued customers will enjoy the best facilities the industry has ever seen, and we are sure that these good tidings will serve as a source of inspiration for us to invest more heavily in Jordan’s vibrant real-estate arena,” said Mr. Hussain Sajwani, Chairman of DAMAC Holding.-Continued-
“Our presence in Abdali stems from our belief in the extremely vibrant and dynamic master plan that is due to become a true hub for business and tourism for many nationalities throughout the region and beyond. Our ambitious plan for Jordan includes a number of real estate ventures that we plan to unveil in the near future,” said Mr. Peter Riddoch, CEO, DAMAC Properties.
DAMAC’s 'The Heights' and ‘The Lofts,’ were completely sold out in record time, with the former selling out within just two months since its launch. “At this stage we are very happy with what we have achieved so far in Jordan, and we feel that this market still has a lot more to offer us in the future,” added Mr. Riddoch.
