Charles Duff, chief operating officer, Europe and the Middle East, said the Arabic website was an important additional channel to help Coffey communicate with clients in the Middle East in all industry sectors in which the consultancy works, particularly in the property sector, and increase Coffey’s brand exposure in the region.
“Coffey has played an important role helping the Middle East to prosper for 30 years. From Abu Dhabi to Amman, we’ve partnered with governments and businesses to build vital infrastructure and provide expert advice.
“The Middle East is an exciting market and we can see a number of opportunities to help the Middle East grow, particularly in the property sector. We are keen to expand our footprint in the region, building upon our Coffey Projects’ operations base in the United Arab Emirates and creating project opportunities for other Coffey businesses which also operate in the region.
“We have a long history of working in the United Arab Emirates for clients such as SinoGulf Investment, Capital Investments, Abu Dhabi Centre for Housing and Service Facilities Development, Ministry of Public Works of the United Arab Emirates and the Emirates Real Estate Corporation. We are looking to use our regional experience to expand the services we offer to global and local clients operating in the region.”
