JUMJUM DEBUTS IN THE NIGHT SOUQ
JumJum, the camel character created by Index Holding, now has a dedicated
stall at the DSF 2009 Night Souk in Al Seef Street in Dubai. The JumJum World
stall opened in February, giving children a chance to play with JumJum and take
pictures with the orange Camel.
“The Night Souq has become very popular as it offers a pleasant outdoor
shopping experience and includes well-known retailers in Dubai selling a wide
range of goods, in addition to having restaurants and an entertainment area.
Therefore, it is a good opportunity for JumJum World to have its share of this
amazing shopping experience and provide children and the audience in general
with unique educational and entertainment tools that will enhance their
learning experiences,” said Anas Al Madani, Vice-President of Index Holding.
