Held before a capacity crowd at the Joharah Ballroom of Madinat Jumeirah, the annual RetailME Awards on February 19 was under the patronage of Sheikha Lubna Bint Khaled Al Qasimi, UAE Minister of Economy.
The event is unique in the Middle East and was held only for the second time, but its success was evident from the number of entries, retailer participation from as far as Jordan, a bigger venue and a much bigger audience.
