Gitex Shopper 2019 – Gadget and Technology Sale in Dubai

GITEX Shopper is the region’s longest-running technology sale and consumer electronics event where customers can shop the latest smartphones, laptops, tablets, TVs, and other electronic items from top retailers in the country.

In fact, this event has become an attraction in itself because people from other countries in the MENA region also tend to schedule their visits during this season to make the most out of the experience.

We will have plenty of exclusive products, bundles and offers at the event.”

GITEX SHOPPER TRADE-IN

Following the popularity of the initiative’s inauguration during GITEX Shopper 2018, the show’s organisers, DWTC, will be hosting the second Shopper Trade-in, with the goal to further encourage visitors to recycle their unused electronics during an amnesty, which will reward them with vouchers to spend during the exhibition.
