Mohamed Alabbar, the founder of Emaar Properties, provided an update on the Dubai Creek Tower project and disclosed that the tower is “currently in the process of being redesigned,” according to a statement by Emirates News Agency (WAM).
The tower is now undergoing redesign after a competition in which numerous well-known international companies took part.
In the coming seven to eight months, Emaar Properties hopes to develop a novel idea for this project in conjunction with the chosen multinational company.
According to WAM, citing Alabbar, “We hope to start construction within a year from now.”
Alabbar, the creator of Emaar Properties and the online shopping website Noon, praised the UAE for its advanced competitive economy and secure investment climate. He ascribed this to the leadership of the nation’s forward-thinking vision.
According to Alabbar, “the wise leadership in the country has placed a top priority on the continuous improvement of the business environment, in a way that aims to attract investors of all sizes and activities,” adding that this strategy has led to robust growth for businesses like Emaar Properties and Noon.
According to Alabbar, Dubai’s Emaar will complete 45 skyscrapers in 2023
One of the top real estate companies in the UAE, Emaar Properties, “intends to deliver 45 towers including 15,000 apartments in 2023,” according to Alabbar.
Alabbar was upbeat about the company’s future development and cited its outstanding financial results in the first half of the year, which included revenues of AED12.3 billion and net profits of AED4.9 billion, up 15%.
The Board of Directors of Emaar Properties is setting long-term expansion plans that span between 15 and 20 years, including new projects that are expected to be launched, according to Alabbar, who also disclosed plans for long-term expansion.
Alabbar talked about Noon’s quick advancement since its debut in 2017.
Due to its availability of services like Noon Minutes and Noon Food, the e-commerce platform has emerged as a regional leader in online retail.
With prospective intentions to expand into additional areas, Noon is concentrating on development and growth in the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt. As part of its growth strategy, Alabbar also indicated Noon’s interest in the travel industry.
