In a significant milestone that highlights India’s rising prominence in global manufacturing and design, BNW Developments, a leading real estate developer based in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), has forged a strategic partnership with Geminox, a distinguished Indian marble company headquartered in Udaipur, Rajasthan.
This collaboration will see Geminox’s premium natural stones, sourced from the mineral-rich quarries of Rajasthan, integrated into BNW’s ultra-luxury real estate projects across the UAE, setting a new benchmark for excellence in global luxury developments.
This partnership aligns seamlessly with the Government of India’s ‘Make in India, Make for the World’ initiative, which seeks to position India as a global hub for manufacturing and innovation. By leveraging the unparalleled quality of Indian marble, BNW Developments is not only elevating its architectural offerings but also championing India’s craftsmanship on an international platform.
Ankur Aggarwal, Founder and Chairman of BNW Developments, emphasized the significance of this collaboration, stating, “At BNW, our mission is to deliver developments that resonate with the aspirations of global investors and high-net-worth individuals. This partnership with Geminox reflects our shared commitment to enhancing international luxury real estate through the exceptional quality of Indian marble and the UAE’s architectural expertise. It is a testament to our dedication to advancing the ‘Make in India, Make for the World’ vision.”
The collaboration also holds broader implications for India’s global economic ambitions. Vivek Anand Oberoi, Founder and Managing Director of BNW Developments, highlighted its alignment with the vision of Viksit Bharat (Developed India), noting, “Through this partnership, BNW Developments is contributing to India’s journey toward global leadership. By showcasing India’s craftsmanship in the UAE’s dynamic real estate market, we are fostering cross-border collaboration and reinforcing India’s position as a powerhouse of quality and innovation. We look forward to a enduring and impactful partnership with Geminox.”
Mukul Devpura, Director of Geminox, expressed pride in the alliance, stating, “This partnership with BNW Developments is a moment of great honor for Geminox. Bringing the timeless elegance of Indian marble to the UAE, a global hub for real estate, is a celebration of India’s heritage and the ‘Make in India’ ethos. This collaboration transcends business—it represents the fusion of tradition and innovation, showcasing the boundless potential of Indian craftsmanship on the world stage.”
The partnership underscores the growing international ambitions of Indian companies, which are increasingly defining global markets through superior quality, craftsmanship, and design. India’s marble industry is a significant contributor to this narrative, with annual exports of marble, travertine, and alabaster products valued at approximately USD 38 million. In 2023 alone, India exported marble and travertine worth USD 2.8 million to the UAE, amounting to over 2,000,000 kilograms, reflecting the robust demand for Indian natural stones in international markets.
This alliance also aligns with the shared economic goals of India and the UAE, which aim to double their non-oil, non-precious-metal bilateral trade to USD 100 billion. The partnership between BNW Developments and Geminox exemplifies how strategic collaborations can drive mutual growth, fostering innovation and excellence while strengthening economic ties between the two nations. As India continues to assert its presence in global markets, this partnership stands as a beacon of cross-border synergy, blending heritage with modernity to redefine luxury on a global scale.
