ABU DHABI: The Desert Garden Centre is part of the Desert Group and has opened its doors to Abu Dhabi on Thursday 27 October 2011. The Desert Garden Centre is located inside Khalifa Park and you would enter through the Park's gates that are next to Rotana Hotel and the twofour54 building, where there is ample parking.
The Desert Garden Centre has been molded on the iconic and successful Dubai Garden Centre to cater for the ever-growing Abu Dhabi population with some adjustments to suit the local marketplace.
Danny Powell, General Manager of both the Dubai and Desert Garden Centres says, “ Our deliveries to Abu Dhabi were growing at such a fast rate, it was a natural move to 'branch' out into Abu Dhabi”.
As soon as you enter Khalifa Park the displays of outdoor furniture, pots, plants, fountains, umbrellas are visible and surround the entrance to the air-conditioned showroom.
The elongated showroom houses Indoor plants, garden tools, planters, ceramic pots, artificial plants, fertilizers, seeds, vases, irrigation equipment, tool boxes, BBq's, ceramic kitchenware, coffee machines, reproduction antiques, sunhats. Also inside and spilling out into a glass conservatory will be a café managed by the Raw Coffee Company.
The Desert Garden Centre is a joint initiative between Abu Dhabi municipality and the Desert Group. Both parties feel it will be a great asset to the people of Abu Dhabi and hope they will take advantage of a retail setting in a Park environment.
