Lulu hypermarket to open at Hili Mall

Hili Mall has signed a contract with leading retail conglomerate Lulu International Group to open a new 70,000-sq-ft hypermarket this month in Al Ain city in the UAE. 

The agreement is in tune with Hili Mall’s focus to attract leading global brands for meeting the daily needs of families in Al Ain. It also is in line with Lulu’s strategic planning to boost its presence in the city by exploring new market opportunities.

The contract was signed by Saeed Sultan Al Dhaheri, CEO of Hili Mall, and Yusuffali, chairman of Lulu Group, in the presence of other officials.

Al Dhaheri comments: “We are delighted to seal this partnership and are confident that the new hypermarket alongside internationally-acclaimed retail groups such as Al Shaya, Landmark, Kamal Osman Jamjoom, and other renowned brands will be a focal destination which will be attracting more visitors to the mall.” 

This also paves the way for more collaborations with other leading brands under one roof, he says.

Commenting on the deal, Yusuffali says: “Our presence in Hili Mall demonstrates our commitment to having a presence in all major retail landmarks across the UAE. Due to its distinguished location within Al Ain, Hili Mall offers an additional advantage to Lulu hypermarket.”

Damac launches plots in golf community

Damac Properties has launched Akoya Imagine plots within an international golf community in Dubai, UAE, providing investors the opportunity to purchase land plots in a thriving development that comprises colourful villas with low annual community fees and an extended time to build for up to 10 years.

The prices of plots start at Dh600,000 ($163,356) and have gone on sale.

Ziad El Chaar, managing director, Damac Properties, says: “Investments in golf communities typically enjoy higher returns as supply remains limited and are considered more financially stable than investments in financial instruments. For those investors considering suitable long-term opportunities, this exciting development represents the perfect occasion to plan for their children’s future, their own retirement or to grow and enhance their financial portfolios. Furthermore, Dubai is also known for its prime release estate and high yields, offering a more secure and stable investment environment than most other investment classes.”

In addition, Damac Properties has also launched its 33-storey Tower 108, a collection of serviced hotel apartments located in Jumeirah Village Circle. To be operated by Damac Maison de Ville, the hotel apartment units present a lucrative investment opportunity with potential for high returns.
