Dubai: From shower gels for Dh5 and hand soaps for Dh10 to a chance to win a multi-million luxury apartment in Madinat Jumeirah Living or Dh1 million in cash for a spend of just Dh100, deals during the Dubai Shopping Festival (DSF) this month have been coming in all sizes, attracting an increasing number of shoppers, according to a top official. Speaking exclusively to Gulf News on Tuesday, Mohammed Feras Arayqat, Director Retail Registration, Retail & Strategic Alliances, Dubai Economy and Tourism, said the ongoing festival’s huge success, in its current 27th edition, continues to position Dubai as a global hub for tourism and commerce, which as per estimates is forecast to reach $70.5 billion in sales by 2025. “This is despite the current global challenges that have been brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic,” he said. “The 27th edition of DSF highlights the city’s readiness, openness and the comprehensive safety measures in place for all residents and global visitors. Dubai’s malls, retail stores and attractions are all adhering to stringent health and safety protocols issued by public health authorities, and have taken all the necessary precautions to keep visitors and shoppers safe and at ease,” he said.
