Jacky's Electronics sees Gitex Shopper Spring Edition fuelling sales across all IT categories

Created under the directive of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, the spring edition is an adapted version of the long-running Gitex Shopper held every October. The exhibition is happening from 3rd to 6th April 2013 at Dubai World Trade Centre.

"The second edition of Gitex Shopper is a good business opportunity for retailers like us and a show such as this always represents a month's worth of sales for Jacky's. The Spring show will surely spike up our annual projected sales," said Ashish Panjabi, COO of Jacky's Electronics. "This is not only due to the offers we'll be carrying out but also because we will attract a slightly different audience to the October edition of Gitex Shopper as we expect to see more families and tourists from the region visiting Dubai due to the school holidays.

"We've been associated with Gitex Shopper brand for over a decade now, having seen it emerge from under the shadow of Gitex Technology Week to become an independent event. The spring edition of Gitex Shopper mirrors the growth that many of us in the industry have been witnessing and experiencing," Panjabi added.

According to Panjabi, the spring edition is also a logical next step and very timely with the lifecycles of most IT products becoming shorter, customers wanting the best deals are becoming more apparent. "April is also when most of the product launches from major brands are happening along with most manufacturers providing clearance deals on end-of-life products."

During the exhibition, Jacky's Electronics is offering customers an improved shopping experience by introducing 3-easy-step-shopping. These three steps are dubbed 'Select, Pay & Collect.'

In the first step, customers can 'Select' the product they want from dedicated category and product stands where they can get a hands-on experience with most products. The stands have been optimised to ensure that displays are maximised and customers will find sales people who are only focused on selling.

In the 'Pay' step, customers can proceed to any of the 26 dedicated cashier sections across the halls allowing customers for easier payments. During the 'Collect' stage, customers can proceed to dedicated delivery points for TV, digital cameras, mobile phones, tablets and notebooks where all purchases and bundled products can be handed over. This will ensure customers are free to walk around the hall and pick up their goods only when they decide to exit the venue.

The company will also have product bundle offers across all categories.

Meanwhile, all customers who have purchased from Jacky's stands at Gitex Shopper or from any of Jacky's outlets can submit their transaction details on Jacky's Facebook fanpage (www.facebook.com/jackysuae) will have a chance to win prizes from 3rd to 6th April 2013.
