Azizi Developments extends its agreement with Toshiba for Riviera Phase 3

  • The developer is extending its procurement of Japanese premium passenger and service elevators for Riviera.   

Dubai, UAE, 3 February 2022: Azizi Developments, a leading private developer in the UAE, has extended its agreement with Toshiba Elevator Middle East L.L.C, the Japanese makers of the world’s fastest elevator, to supply and install passenger and service elevators for its 13 buildings in Riviera Phase 3.


Toshiba Elevator Middle East L.L.C has been in the Middle Eastern market since 1999, securing numerous iconic projects, offering safe, comfortable vertical transportation with state-of-the-art technologies. Toshiba’s most modern solution, its machine-room-less (MRL) elevators, will be integrated with premium wood-style cabin wall finishings and elegant buttons embedded in full-height, luxurious glass panels. Elevator safety is prioritised, with the technology meeting and surpassing all international standards. 


Commenting on the agreement’s extension, Mr Farhad Azizi, CEO of Azizi Developments, said, “We are glad to announce the renewal of our agreement with Toshiba Elevator Middle East L.L.C, which comes in light of the appointment earlier this year. This agreement demonstrates our dedication to obtaining high-quality, custom-built elevators. We pride ourselves in creating developments that exemplify unrivalled modern luxury – a design and construction philosophy that distinguishes us and assures investor happiness. Toshiba was chosen as the right match, precisely meeting Riviera’s extremely high-quality standards.”


Riviera is part of Azizi Developments’ award-winning portfolio. It is a stylish waterfront-lifestyle destination located in the heart of Mohammed Bin Rashid City, 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 features three districts: an extensive retail boulevard, a lagoon walk with artisan eateries and boutiques, and Les Jardins — a vast, lush-green social space. 


Recently, Azizi Developments announced the addition of a 2.7-kilometre-long crystal lagoon to Riviera, covering an area of over 130,026 square metres that will stretch across the entirety of the community. With stunning blue flooring, filled with more than 51.5 million gallons of crystal-clear, desalinated and clean water that residents can swim in, and easily accessible via its lagoon walk — which will also feature a vast variety of artisan eateries and boutiques — Azizi’s lagoon will be a bustling space where residents can enjoy strolls along the beach-like shores, sunbathe and cool off.


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.


Azizi Developments’ Sales Gallery can be visited on the 13th floor of the Conrad Hotel on Sheikh Zayed Road.
