  • PRESS RELEASE

Dubai-based construction firm Kele Contracting is proud to announce that it has signed a new contract with Majid Al Futtaim Properties, subsidiary of the Majid Al Futtaim Holding, for phase 3 of the redevelopment works at Deira City Centre shopping centre.

The announcement bears testament to the successful relationship forged between the two companies during the first two phases of the project, which took place over the course of 10 months and saw the addition of 30,000 square feet of retail space to the shopping centre.

Phase 1 of the project has already been completed, while Phase 2 is still in progress.

Phase 3, which is set for completion by August 2012, will see the refurbishment of the restaurant/ City Walk precinct, the expansion of retail space and food courts, as well as the renovation of male and female amenities. Development and construction works have been planned to have little to no impact on the centre's activities and customers.

"We are proud to continue our ongoing relationship with Majid Al Futtaim Properties and we look forward to completing phase 3 of the Deira City Centre shopping centre redevelopment project in partnership with the Majid Al Futtaim Properties team" said Kele Contracting CEO, Andrew Elias.

This phase includes various enhancements and expansion initiatives, which will undoubtedly cement the centre's position as one of Dubai's most popular malls, continued Elias.

Kele Contracting was established in 2005 in partnership with Enshaa PSC and Australian affiliate Kele International Holdings. The firm specialises in construction management and contracting, as well as value engineering, interior fit-out and design-and-build projects, and it counts various well-known regional and international industry players among its clients.

Having successfully completed numerous large-scale residential, commercial high-rise and infrastructure projects, Kele has emerged as a significant force in the Middle Eastern construction industry.
