Azizi Developments, a leading private developer in the UAE, has announced the appointment of RAQ Contracting Co. LLC, a well-established, renowned general contractor specialising in designing and building, as well as in pre-designed projects, including towers, industrial structures, hotels, malls, and other segments, for the fourth phase of its Riviera project in MBR City. The scope of work focuses on the reinforced cement concrete (RCC) structural works of five of the developer’s highly sought-after residential and hotel Riviera buildings.
RAQ Contracting, which has operated in the UAE for more than 7 years, was chosen due to its extensive and outstanding track record, as well as its firm commitment to its core values – reliability, accountability and quality.
Mohamed Ragheb Hussein, Chief Development Officer at Azizi Developments, said: “Our signing with RAQ Contracting is a testament to our continuous efforts in only working with best-in-class suppliers. Through our partnership with RAQ, we strive to meet and exceed our customers’ expectations. While our knowledgeable and experienced engineering team will continue to ensure that all contractors abide by our set agreements, and that they complete their work in a timely fashion and at the highest quality standards, with RAQ contracting, we feel that we, as well as our valued investors, are in very safe hands.”
Riviera, a stylish waterfront-lifestyle destination located in the heart of MBR City, is planned to comprise 71 mid-rise buildings with approximately 16,000 residences upon its completion that are conveniently located in the midst of all the business, leisure and retail hubs of the city.
Designed to introduce the French-Mediterranean lifestyle to Dubai, which is not merely about architectural art but also about a certain ‘joie de vivre’ — a celebration of life, an exultation of spirit, Riviera represents a new landmark destination that is both residential and commercial, with an abundance of retail space.
Riviera comprises three distinct districts: an extensive retail boulevard, a 2.7km-long crystal-clear water lagoon for residents to swim in, featuring artisan eateries and boutiques, and Les Jardins — a vast, lush-green social space.
With its strategic location near the upcoming Meydan One Mall and the Meydan Racecourse — home of the Dubai World Cup — as well as Dubai’s most noteworthy points of interest, Riviera represents one of Azizi Developments’ most coveted projects.
