February 12, 2018

H.E. Sheikh Abdul Rahman Bin Mohammed Bin Jabor Al-Thani, Chairman of the Qatar Industrial Manufacturing Company, has signed a contract for the construction of the QIMC Towers with Redco Construction. The project is located at the Doha Corniche, and will be built on a property of the Company. The skyscraper, estimated to cost QR1.2 billion, will consist of three towers divided into a commercial building, a residential tower, and a Hotel high-rise.

The project includes three towers, which are joined at the base with a total area of about 120,000 square meters, including an underground parking area. Each tower will differ from the other two towers in size and usage. The 29-storey residential tower will offer first-class views on the Corniche and a generous range of amenities including a spa, gym and swimming pool.

The second tower consists of 23 floors of integrated office space, while the third 38 floors tower consists of 350 luxury hotel units.

A 5-storey base connects the three towers to each other and is designed for commercial activities that will host a myriad of shopping, dining and relaxation outlets and a large number of parking spaces.

Mr. Abdulrahman Al Ansari, Chief Executive Officer of QIMC said: “QIMC Tower enjoys a unique location on the Doha Corniche, and we are seeking to take advantage of this premium location through the development of such property in partnership with senior international and local consultants. This building will be our headquarters, while our core business will remain unchanged in the field of industrial investment. It should be noted that QIMC participates in 20 industrial projects at the moment, all of which are in the production stages in various industrial sectors including petrochemical, chemical, building, and food industries, in addition to a number of new projects in the early stage.

The State of Qatar has given great importance to the involvement of the private sector in the economic development process by investing in small and medium industries. This trend is evident in the establishment of the Qatar Industrial Manufacturing Company in 1990, shared by the state and the private sector at 20% - 80%.
