As 2019 drew to a close, Dubai Duty Free (DDF) notched another record on 26 December with sales during the year crossing the US$2 billion mark.
The record second big B crossing event took place when Indian nationals Neeraj Sati and his wife, traveling back to Mumbai with their family after celebrating Christmas with relatives in Dubai, purchased items worth AED348 from Concourse D.
