Dubai: Average footfall at Nakheel’s Dragon Mart retail complex is topping 110,000 daily at peak times, as the Dubai Shopping Festival (DSF) takes place, according to a statement on Tuesday.

Visitor numbers at Dragon Mart jumped 40 per cent last weekend, the developer Nakheel said in the statement.

Dragon Mart usually welcomes around 80,000 people daily, but visitor numbers are up by more than 30,000 a day due to DSF promotions and the opening of the 100,000-square metre Dragon Mart 2.
