Mercato (Italian for market) is the first themed mall in the Middle East and UAE, which brings together the choicest lifestyle offerings from the Mediterranean, in addition to many exclusive international brands. Based on a distinctive Renaissance architectural concept, it predominantly captures Italian, French and Spanish flavours and artistic characteristics; playing host to regular fairs and festivals from each country.
Mercato is designed to be a prestigious shopping destination catering to quality-conscious residents and visitors to Dubai. It is ideally located in Jumeirah, one of the fastest growing residential and retail districts in the city, currently boasting several resort properties, hotels and private villas. Mercato provides more than just world famous brand names; it offers a comprehensive shopping and entertainment experience within an aesthetically stimulating ambience. It is simply the Goodlife.
Mercato is an inspired creation from the famous Italian architect, Daniele Morelli, a well-known Italian architect, who researched extensively to give shape to the vision of Mr Abdul Rahim Zarooni, the seasoned entrepreneur with an eye for artistic excellence.
The interior of the mall replicates the concept of several squares, the focal point of any Mediterranean town and the traditional location of the mercato, or market. Centuries ago, peasants would bring their goods to the mercato to trade. Inevitably, shops became permanent features, all facing inwards to attract maximum custom. Eventually, the mercato developed a sense of community and family, becoming a place where people met for coffee and talked for hours. And at sunset, the square would turn into a venue for events, festivals and concerts.
