Tribeca Developers which is the United States President Donald Trump's real estate firm is planning its first commercial tower in Pune as lately there has been a boom in demand for office spaces in India.
The expansion in India, which is the biggest market for Trump's real estate business outside of the US, comes at a point when the two countries are discussing bilateral trade deals.
Recently Prime Minister Narendra Modi was hosted by the US President Donald Trump at the White House after he won the US elections for a second term as President and Trump has indicated India could be among the nations that get hit with reciprocal duty starting April 2.
While it may be argued that owning businesses while being the President of the United Nations may be unethical, Trump had handed the management of his company to his sons and put his assets in a trust - measures that according to critics weren't enough to fully divorce him from the business empire, according to a Bloomberg report.
Trump Organization announced a new ethics plan in January which loosened one previous restriction. Consequently, while new deals with foreign governments are off limits, it doesn't rule out pursuing deals with foreign companies.
The Indian division of Tribeca Developers along with Kundan Spaces have announced the launch of Trump World Center in Pune, which is a development that marks the Trump Organization's first foray into commercial real estate in India.
This project will join the company's portfolio of having built Trump residential properties in the region.
Situated on North Main Road, the 4.3-acre site is expected to generate sales exceeding Rs 2,500 crore, highlighting Pune’s rising prominence as a global business hub.
The Trump World Center is set to span over 1.6 million square feet, featuring two iconic glass towers with over 27 floors of office space. One tower will offer for-sale strata offices, while the other will provide larger leasable offices, catering to a range of business needs.
This project is going to be one of the most advanced and well-equipped office buildings globally. It will be designed to fulfill every possible need of tenants and their employees.From creches to salons, auditoriums to gyms, sports facilities, spas, restaurants, and grocery stores, the development will integrate a comprehensive suite of services and amenities. A luxury retail boulevard will showcase high-end brands, while India’s first Trump Club will offer an exclusive space for business leaders, complete with dining and networking facilities.
Commenting on the development, Kalpesh Mehta, the Founder of Tribeca Developers said, "I’m proud to unveil this first-of-its-kind office project and thrilled to be collaborating with the Trump Organization and Kundan Spaces on it. It’s not merely a building; it’s a legacy in the making.”
"India has embraced the Trump brand with remarkable enthusiasm. After our successful collaboration on several iconic residential projects, we are proud to launch our first commercial development in India," said Eric Trump, the Executive Vice President of the Trump Organization.
Founded in 2012, Tribeca is India's leading design focused real estate developer and committed to crafting iconic landmarks that redefine cityscapes.
The firm's portfolio not only boasts of the largest collection of luxury branded residences in India, but it also has the world's largest rooftop and Pune's largest high-street retail.
Additionally, the company's goal is to make each project the most prestigious in the market or a "Trophy Property".
