During 2019, the wholly owned subsidiary of Emaar Malls recorded sales of AED1.028 billion ($280 million) increasing 21 percent compared to the previous year.

In 2019, there were approximately 136 million visitors collectively with Dubai Mall maintaining its exceptional performance welcoming 84 million visitors in 2019. Commenting on the 2019 performance, Mohamed Alabbar, Chairman of Emaar and Board Member of Emaar Malls, said, "2019 was a great year for Emaar Malls with occupancy and visitor levels growing steadily. This uptick is a result of our continuous innovation as we refresh the customer journey, diversify our portfolio and invest in opportunities to bring our destinations to life. Examples of this include the recently opened Zabeel Extension at The Dubai Mall and the complete acquisition of Namshi, both of which contributed to our achievements in 2019." "We expect to see this success continue through 2020, as we focus on loyalty programs to drive repeat visits and open new destinations to welcome inbound tourism driven by Expo 2020," he concluded. |
