»»Landmark says DSF sales not ‘exceptional’
UAE-based retailer Landmark has said group witnessed a slight increase in sales during this year’s Dubai Shopping Festival (DSF), but nothing “exceptional,” The National has reported. The start of festival, which finishes today, was moved forward from January 20 last year to January 5 this year, beginning just after the New Year, festive and Eid periods. “Bringing it forward did not really help,” said Vipen Sethi, the chief executive of Landmark Group, which represents local brands such as Centrepoint, Home Centre, Shoe Mart, Emax and Candelite, as well as Oasis Mall. “Saying that, there are a lot of people experiencing the festival because they were here on holiday, but it did not convert to numbers.”
