Mashriq to expand facility in DIP

01 July 2004

Al Mashriq Furniture, a leading furniture company in the UAE dealing in the manufacture of chairs, has announced a major expansion plan in the Dubai Investment Park.

With the addition of the new development, the company’s total investment in the Park will reach Dh38 million ($10.34 million).
“The new project is part of the company’s expansion plan that is aimed at operating from the industrial and investment environment showcased at the Park, which offers excellent facilities ideally suited to meet our goals for future expansion,” said Ismail Al Nashash, managing director. “The first phase of our plan at the DIP entailed moving the production facilities and offices in 100,000 sq ft area, which we successfully completed in 2003. At that time, our investment was of the order of Dh20 million.”
“We are now planning to venture into the second phase of the plan, which encompasses expansion in the production of sofa sets, mobile office partitions and will construct accommodation for our employees.”
