DubiCars Desert Majlis: Largest Social Gathering Of Car Dealers In The UAE

In the UAE, a Majlis in the desert is a perfect way to socialise and celebrate over some good food, and that is exactly what DubiCars and its dealer partners indulged in on Saturday, 18 February 2023. The event was certainly a grand success with over 350 people representing various automotive dealerships in attendance.

The UAE is one of the most unique car markets in the world. It is the only place in the world where all forms, shapes, sizes, and categories of cars are available. In addition, both new and used cars are available at private dealers, therefore making these dealers a great alternative when compared to the OEM dealerships in the country.

In order to cater to the growing numbers and needs of automotive dealerships in the UAE, DubiCars offers a number of features and listing options. DubiCars plays a vital role in maintaining the online presence of dealers, giving them a wider reach, connecting them with buyers, and making the overall car buying and car selling experience much simpler. In 2022, DubiCars pushed the ‘Time For Change’ message and at the end of it all, DubiCars and its dealer partners had reason to celebrate.

Addressing the gathering of over 350 dealer representatives, Craig Stevens, the CEO of DubiCars said, “2022 was a challenging and rewarding year for the automotive market. Working together, we’ve got through that and created some real opportunities. We asked for a time for change in 2022 and we did change. We actually became the largest marketplace of car dealers, online, in the UAE. Our stock grew 30 percent year-on-year, giving consumers more choice than ever before, through our platform.

It was indeed a great year of buying and selling cars while smiling all the way, and it all culminated in the DubiCars Desert Majlis. A perfect location in Al Awir desert was provided for the DubiCars Desert Majlis. With faux lawn carpeting on an amphitheatre-styled arrangement, the venue had a VIP yet authentic desert feel to it.

The evening started with a traditional Oud performance followed by a Tanour dance performance, while everyone indulged in shisha, good food, beverages, and drinks. This was then followed by a fire performance leading perfectly to the awards ceremony.

The customised and carefully crafted awards were given to the dealerships that had outstanding performance in specified areas of automotive retail that deserved recognition. Each winner was carefully selected by judges only after certain criteria were met.
