For 14 years, Zoya Developments has been at the forefront of crafting modern spaces that seamlessly blend craftsmanship with functional living.
Their innovative approach and dedication to quality have earned them a stellar reputation in the Indian market, where they have delivered over 100,000 units and developed more than 2M sq.ft. of prime real estate.
Zoya Developments was created under the patronage and visionary leadership of Farooq Khan, the Chairman & Managing Director of Columbia Group who has consistently pushed the bar in real estate development. With over 20 years of experience, Khan is renowned for his strategic insights and operational expertise, that has today propelled the future of the Group with the announcement of Zoya Developments.

Sustainability is another cornerstone of Zoya’s approach. From recycling construction waste to using recycled materials, Zoya Developments is committed to pioneering sustainable development practices that benefit both residents and the environment.
Zoya’s culture is built on bold ideas, teamwork, exceptional quality, and an unwavering focus on residents’ needs. These values inspire the company to continually push the boundaries of what’s possible in real estate development.
Dubai’s property market has seen strong growth in recent years. Buyers are interested in suburban communities like Furjan which are well-connected and with a thriving community life. Developers are taking notice of this trend and launching new projects catering to buyers who prefer these areas.
This not only offers buyers new options in emerging areas at affordable prices, but also offering them access to locations that will soon become popular locations for both homeowners and tenants in the coming years.
