In February 2010 the landmark American department store, Bloomingdales, opened its doors to the Dubai public. The store, the first outside of the USA, was brought to the UAE by the Al Tayer Group.
The three-storey 15 000m2 Department store and one-storey 5 000m2 Home store are the anchor tenants at the Dubai Mall, Dubai’s largest shopping mall.
Al-Tayer Stocks, part of the Stefanutti Stocks Group in the Middle East, were the main contractor for the R300 million interior fit-out for the luxury retail icon.
The Al-Tayer Stocks team worked around the clock, with project manager Ian Milford leading the day team and James Devadason project manager for the night shifts . Both were supported by contracts managers Najoa Hishmeh (main store) and Thufail Ahmed (Home store).
The mechanical, electrical and plumbing on both stores was carried out by theStefanutti Stocks’ electromechanical operation Zener Steward.
The MEP team for the department store, led by Zener Steward project manager Robin Godwin, delivered an MEP package to the value of R60 million within the six month period. The MEP team for the homestore, led by Zener Steward project manager Renny Kurikose delivered an MEP package to the value of R23 million within five months.
This multi-million prestigious fit-out project, which was constructed to very tight deadlines in a live mall, was completed on time and to the client’s satisfaction.
