Nokia Lumia 720 proved to be the best gadget launched during Spring Gitex, claims Jumbo Electronics.

It announced a 10 per cent increase in sales during the first Spring Gitex which took place on April 2013 compared to Gitex 2012.

During the UAE’s most popular electronics festival, the retailer claims to have offered its customers great value for money deals with the every purchase of laptops, smartphones, tablets and TV and cameras from Sony. The free gifts bundles ranged from tablets to mobile phones to other exciting products and accessories.

Nadeem Khanzadah, Head of Retail, Jumbo Electronics said: “The event saw a high number of visitors which proved consumers’ need for another edition of Gitex to interact with retailers and make value added purchases. Last season, Jumbo recorded a double-digit per cent increase in sales at Gitex Shopper and we have matched it this year with an additional 10 per cent increase in sales.”

With every purchase of a laptop, Gitex shoppers received a free tablet, 500GB disk drive and a DVD player. For smartphone lovers, customers left the event with a free mobile phone, blue tooth headset, backpack, charger, and a DVD player. For tech savvy shoppers who chose to go for one of the fastest selling products such as a tablet, they were offered a free Bluetooth speaker, cover, headset, and stylus to fulfil their passion for technology.
