Emirates Group member moves diamonds to Belgium
Emirates Group division Transguard, one of the UAE's major security and logistics firms, has signed an agreement with the diamond service company Trigem DMCC to provide secure transport services.
Trigem Charlotte Boiling, a JV between Trigem DMCC in Dubai and Charlotte Quality Boiling in Antwerp, Belgium, set to launch in February, offers boiling services to mining companies worldwide and to diamond traders in Dubai.
They can now drop off their wares at Transguard's offices six days a week and pick them up the next day, after the stones have been processed by Trigem. This complements Transguard's services tailored for its clientele base of diamond traders based in DMCC, enabling Trigem Charlotte Boiling to process and deliver over 1.4 million carats of diamonds per month.
