“Alongside ENSHAA Group’s dynamic investment infrastructure, we are proud to be playing a part in shaping the future growth and development of Dubai.We are, however, also conscious of the impact and value that we can add on a social level – across all our projects and investments.”

Behindthe many achievements credited to its rapid success – ENSHAA Group was founded in 2007 – is the company’s commitment to employing some of the very best and highly skilled development teams in the region. According to Jafar, this success is also attributed to going above and beyond simply delivering on projects, but rather ensuring that each development attains a level that ensures they stand head-and-shoulders above the competition. 

Recentworld-class innovations that ENSHAA Group has delivered include providing the Emirates Financial Towers with the largest robotic (automated) parking facility, in the world. Still an official Guinness World Record, the state-of-the-art technology allows1,191 cars to be stored over nine floors and occupies a net internal area of 27,606.14 m² (297,150 ft²). The modular parking system uses multiple and simultaneous rapid pallet movements and canmanage a peak capacity of 360 cars per hour.

Another example of ENSHAA Group’s commitment to quality and innovation is the bespoke luxury and iconic design of the Palazzo Versace Hotel Dubai (PVD), which caters to high net worth individuals by offering a truly bespoke experience in every room and unique designs that reflect the opulence and dynamism of the Versace brand.

This is why ENSHAA Group has been able to grow rapidly into one of the region’s premier developers of commercial, residential and hospitality projects,” Jafar concluded.
