Located within the upcoming Jumeirah Lakes Towers development, the 65-floor Almas Tower is DMCC's flagship tower, purpose built to cater to the specific needs of the diamond industry.
DMCC handed over the keys to member companies occupying levels 3-20 of Almas Tower, during a ceremony held January 8, 2007 at Monarch Hotel, Dubai. The clients can now complete the individual fit outs of their offices before they move into their new offices.
Ahmed bin Sulayem, Executive Chairman, DMCC said: "The completion of Almas Tower is a significant step towards DMCC's objective of establishing a dedicated market place, providing industry-specific market infrastructure and full range of facilities for the diamond trade in Dubai. Equipped with hi-tech security systems and secure vaulting facilities, Almas Tower offer an entire range of diamond trade related facilities, and will lay the foundation for a dedicated diamond industry cluster in the region. It will also house Dubai Diamond Exchange, the region's only diamond exchange."
He added: "DMCC is pleased to welcome nearly 100 members who will be occupying levels 3-20. The rest of the floors at Almas Tower will be handed over in phases over the next couple of months. We look forward to seeing Almas Tower develop into a thriving hub of diamond trade as envisioned by DMCC."
