Richard Kim, Managing Director, Vindico

Vindico has combined its content, design, management and on-site products to work with Maker Maxity's local, national and international retail and restaurant brands, using teams in both Dubai and Mumbai.

Paul Mathews, Director of Retail Delivery, worked with the Maker Maxity team to shape the solution. He says the firm sees beyond the resourcing-only model many construction-led developers still default to: understanding the dynamic between retail and foodservice businesses and international brands, with refined methods and deliverables, is what allows value to be added flexibly and cost-effectively.

Vindico's role covers content, design, management and on-site retail delivery. The development and construction of the centre sit with the joint venture and its contractors.
