  • PRESS RELEASE

BAFCO, the region's premier architectural office interiors and office furniture supplier, has successfully completed the fit-out of office interiors at the new Emirates Terminal 3 at Dubai International.

The Dhs16.52bn terminal, which opened on October 14, now houses 2,200 workstations supplied by BAFCO plus public area sofas and executive desks. In a triumph of logistics, the company sourced office furnishings globally from Italy, Spain and Korea ahead of the 60-day deadline set by Dubai Airports.

The contract is estimated to be worth Dhs11m ($2.98m).

BAFCO was awarded the Dubai Airports project in December 2007, with specifications finalised in January 2008 and delivery completed by March this year. For its timely delivery Dubai Airports officials presented BAFCO with Supplier of the Year Award 2008.

Sales and Design Manager at BAFCO Ahmed Syeeduddin said:
"The specifications provided to us were very comprehensive, stressing quality and design in all aspects. The delivery time was also tight, but we managed to custom-make the furniture, source manufacturers and suppliers and coordinate international deliveries from Europe and the Far East."


"What makes this award particularly special is the fact that it recognised the levels of quality and customer service that we applied to this challenging and demanding project," he said.
BAFCO's Dhs11m fit out contract at Terminal 3 garnered the company Supplier of the Year by Dubai Airports.
