The Middle East’s largest and most anticipated consumer IT and electronics show has sold out, as some of the world’s top brands and biggest names in the retail sector confirm their presence at this year’s GITEX Shopper. The eight-day show takes place from 5 – 12 October at the Dubai World Trade Centre, follows an earlier GITEX Shopper Spring edition which enjoyed record success for an inaugural show in the Middle East.

With the consumer electronics market in the UAE currently valued at US$ 3.9 billion and expected to grow to US$ 4.3 billion by 2015 according to latest industry reports, the UAE remains a key market in the Middle East. GITEX Shopper offers retailers a perfect platform to tap into a burgeoning market of tech-savvy consumers seeking the best deals on the latest consumer electronics products available.

Regional power retailers including Al Falak, E-City, Emax, Geekay, iStyle, Jacky’s Electronics, Jumbo Electronics, MK Trading, One Mobile, Plug-Ins, Sharaf DG, Tarsam and Tec Buy, and top world brands such as Samsung, the platinum sponsor for GITEX Shopper 2013, Bose, Dell, HP, Nestle, Seagate and Videocon, are promising exciting new product launches and unbeatable offers across the full range of technology, communication and entertainment sectors.

GITEX Shopper organisers have announced an unprecedented lineup of entertainment features, competitions and prizes this year. Opening hours will run for a full 12 hours a day, from 11:00am to 11:00pm, with the metro station close by to offer visitors convenient access to and from the show.

 

Tickets are priced at AED 30 per person and will be available at the venue and from selected EPPCO, ENOC and Zoom outlets closer to the show. Entry is free for children below the age of five.
