Additionally, we are launching new outlets throughout the UAE to make businesses more mobile, collaborative, productive, and efficient,” Faraidooni added.

The new centre features several counters to increase convenience for enterprise customers – from startups, SMEs and large enterprises – and help them operate more efficiently, collaborate more effectively, and connect better with their customers. It also has multiple bill payment machines offering a quick and easy way to pay bills. Expert staff is available to address enquiries, engage with customers and provide information about all-in-one plans and services, contributing to an enhanced customer experience.

du’s new outlet is located in Gate Building on the Marble Walk, home to more than 200 prime retail stores and over 50,000 visitors each day. The telco aims to establish business centres in accessible locations in multiple emirates this year.
