Images RetailME, part of Dubai-based Images Multimedia, unveiled a special edition coffee table book ‘Vision & Views’ on day one at its fourth annual Middle East Retail Forum (MRF) 2015, which took place on October 27 & 28 at Conrad Hotel, Dubai.
The inaugural edition of Vision & Views chronicles stories of successes and struggles of 30 retail stalwarts in the region. Collated, the stories archive the history of the growth and development of trade and retail in this part of the world with their snapshots of the evolving times.
Most of them started small, with a single store mostly in the souks, and went on to build trading empires. Their stories, supplemented by the constant infusion of new ideas and innovation in every succeeding generation, form an interesting and educative textbook for the retail trade, the common thread being: “If you have a dream, chase it till it becomes reality.”
The 30 retail leaders featured in Vision & Views include:
Among the stalwarts featured in Vision & Views, Vasu Shroff, Ram Buxani, Jacky Panjabi, Nisreen Shocair, Khurshid Vakil, Mona Ataya and Abdul Mohsen Behbehani took special pride in unveiling the book on stage along with Images Group chairman and managing director Amitabh Taneja and authors Lawrence Pinto and Rupkatha Bhowmick.
