Nielsen survey shows shift in Dubai shopping malls visitor patterns
Dubai's shopping malls are increasingly functioning as multi-purpose destinations, combining retail, dining, leisure, and errands in a single visit, according to a new survey of more than 750 residents – The Mall Mindset 2025 – conducted by Nielsen and commissioned by Al Ghurair Centre. The findings point to patterns in visit duration, trip purpose, and demographic engagement that reflect broader urban lifestyles. Dining as a primary reason to visit Ninety-seven per cent of respondents cited food and beverage as a key reason for visiting malls, putting dining on par with shopping and grocery trips. Food halls offering a variety of cuisines and price points in shared social spaces have grown in popularity, reflecting a trend toward communal and experiential eating. Evening footfall remains strong Most visits occur in the evening. Seventy-six per cent of trips take place between 5pm and midnight, with 32 per cent of respondents visiting at least once a week. The survey confirms that evenings continue to be a peak period for mall visits, reflecting established post-work and midweek routines. Longer visit times Visitors are spending more time in malls, with the average visit lasting up to four hours, covering two to seven outlets, and including up to five purchases per trip. This pattern indicates that mall visits are increasingly layered experiences, where shopping, dining and leisure overlap. Younger generation is the largest visitor group The largest visitor group is the 25–34 age bracket, falling in the Gen Z and Millennials bracket, and represents 46 per cent of mall goers. Twenty-three per cent of visits are solo, and discovery is primarily driven by word of mouth (56 per cent), Instagram (45 per cent), and Facebook (32 per cent). These figures highlight the social and digital channels shaping younger consumers' engagement with malls. The Nielsen survey's findings highlight a shift in mall usage, with longer, multi-purpose visits and digitally-influenced discovery shaping footfall patterns in 2025.

Lord and Queen's ‘proudly Egyptian', powerful rebrand rakes in 50 million views
Lord, a grooming brand with more than a century of heritage in Egypt, and its women's sub-brand Queen, have launched a bold omnichannel rebrand campaign, which aims to bridge generations and redefine what it means to be proudly local in a fast-moving, image-driven world. The campaign marked more than just a marketing refresh. It intended to signal a cultural shift, with a confident tone, bold visuals and Gen Z-driven casting. The brands went beyond nostalgia and aimed to reintroduce themselves with clarity and purpose to a generation that demanded relevance, identity and meaning. This campaign was on several channels across Egypt – while television delivered reach, social media channels delivered virality. The rebrand campaign rollout was coordinated, aiming to achieve street-level buzz and screen-level recall. At the centre of the Lord rebrand campaign lies a classic truth: behind every great man is a woman who empowers him, but with a sharp local twist – a slogan titled 'كل لورد وراه كوين ' – translated to 'Every Lord's got a Queen in his corner' – which audiences found catchy, locally grounded and emotionally loaded. The campaign, and the slogan, reframes gender roles through humour and pride, positioning the two brands not just as products but as co-anchors in a modern lifestyle built on mutual support and shared presence. Leading the campaign are Nour El Nabawy and Nourine Abouseada, two breakout stars who speak directly to Gen Z. El Nabawy brings the weight of a familiar legacy with the energy of a rising icon, while Abouseada adds charisma, relatability and presence through her music and performances. Together, they transform the campaign slogan into a lived-in, believable story; one that feels current, cultural and cool. Lord and Queen no longer appear are not positioned as products from the past, but instead as essentials in the present. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Queen by Lord (@queenbylord) The tone of the campaign is sharp and scroll-friendly, and unsurprisingly, its jingle quickly became one of Anghami's top-played tracks. The visuals are meant to be clean, humorous and inherently local, built for Instagram Reels and TikTok videos without losing their polish. Every detail was intentional, even the product names; Horus and Nebty for Lord, Thuya and Bastet for Queen, which revives Egypt's heritage targeted to young Egyptians who are seeking identity in their choices and are leaning back into their heritage while feeling proud and modern. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Lord Egypt (@lordegypt_) Ever since the 2023 boycott movement, Egyptian consumers have been actively seeking local alternatives to global brands. To address this, Lord did not simply show up. The brand had been preparing rebranding, expanded product lines and a new tone of voice. The success metrics prove that this was not just a successful rebrand; it was a reminder of what local brands can do when they stop apologising for who they are and start owning it. The campaign did not only move the brands product, but also shifted culture, revived pride in being local, and brought money back into the local economy. The campaign garnered more than 50 million views, turning its slogan into a punchline, a daily comment, and a viral social media caption. The campaign's theme song lived on in Reels, remixes, and real-life conversations. Lord and Queen set out to claim their place through a 'proudly Egyptian', powerful, relevant and cultural moment and through 'كل لورد وراه كوين ,' they did not just that.
