Memon Investments, a leading Dubai-based property developer and part of the international business conglomerate, Shaikhani Group, announced that it has passed the halfway mark on the construction of two of its prime residential developments in ‘Dubai Sports City’ - ‘Champions Tower II’ (CT II) and ‘Champions Tower III’ (CT III).

Amidst the progress, Memon Investments aims to underline its commitment to push on with construction despite the challenges of the global economic downturn.

The awarding of various contracts to some of the UAE’s top contractors has contributed to the fast-paced construction of both towers, with Stromek Emirates Foundation having completed the initial excavation and foundation work and Al Sarh Contracting placed in charge of construction.
