'Dubai chocolate' accounts for 4% of Dubai Duty Free's April revenue
Dubai's viral pistachio-filled chocolate bars are driving up revenue at Dubai Duty Free, accounting for 4 per cent of the total business in April. Speaking to Dubai Eye 103.8's Business Breakfast show, Managing Director of Dubai Duty Free Ramesh Cidambi said the chocolate represents 40 per cent of all confectionery sales during the month. In April, Dubai Duty Free welcomed sales worth AED713 million ($195.4 million), representing an 18 per cent increase over the same period the previous year. The revenue positions April as the fourth best month on record for the airport retailer since operations began. Originally launched by Fix in 2021, the Kunafa chocolate trend has gone viral with multiple brands offering its versions, even contributing to a global pistachio shortage. At Dubai Duty Free, Chidami said at least five brands are offering the chocolate bars to meet the 1 million daily sale.

US tariffs show 'no negative impact' at DXB, says Paul Griffiths
The sweeping new US tariffs has not had a "negative impact" on DXB, airport's CEO Paul Griffiths said, but added that with the "volatility of the situation, it's far too soon to comment". Emphasising DXB's resilience, he said: "One thing we have always noticed about DXB is that if there is a bit of an interruption in demand in one market, it is compensated by demand increasing in another market." In an interview with Dubai Eye 103.8's Business Breakfast show, Griffiths said that one airline has experienced the opposite of the expected impact. At Emirates Airline, Chief Commercial Officer Adnan Kazim confirmed that while the airline continues to monitor the situation closely, it has yet to see any significant impact from tariff-related tensions. Still, both leaders acknowledge the uncertainty that lies ahead. With the global situation evolving rapidly, it's too early to make firm predictions about the long-term effects on aviation.

Sharjah revs up futuristic drive with unique flying car
In a move reflecting Sharjah's leadership in adopting future technologies, the Sharjah Research, Technology and Innovation Park (SRTI Park) on Thursday unveiled a unique flying car in partnership with the Dutch company PAL-V. The PAL-V gyroplane, which combines the capabilities of a three-wheeled car and a helicopter, allowing users to drive on roads and fly. The vehicle comes with two engines and folding rotors, allowing it to move smoothly with other cars on the road. The vehicle was the cynosure of all eyes as PAL-V officials provided an indoor demonstration at the SRTI Park, and explained its functionality and ability to travel on land and in the air. PAL-V is now also the first to complete the full certification basis with the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA). The car, under development since 2008, is designed for both road and air travel. It functions as a conventional vehicle on the ground but can be quickly converted into an aircraft, offering a unique door-to-door mobility solution. Talks are ongoing between PAL-V and SRTI Park to establish a collaboration as Advanced Air Mobility market is set to touch $2.9 trillion, according to Morgan Stanley. The event, which took place during SRTI Park's first Business Breakfast of 2025, brought together prominent figures from the investors, entrepreneurs, and partners from diverse economic and technological sectors. Speaking on the occasion, Hussain Al Mahmoudi, CEO of SRTIP, stressed that the Park has become the go-to destination for startups and innovators seeking to turn bold ideas into thriving ventures. He stated: 'The demonstration of the Pal-V Flying Car is not only about showcasing a groundbreaking innovation, but it reflects a broader vision we uphold at SRTIP — to serve as a regional hub for enabling emerging technologies and connecting them with the market. We've built an integrated ecosystem that blends innovation with investment, making SRTIP the platform of choice for entrepreneurs and investors looking to reach customers and achieve real-world impact.' Robert Dingemanse, Founder and CEO of the Dutch company PAL-V, delivered a detailed presentation on the unique flying car, covering its development journey, technical capabilities, and ongoing talks with SRTIP to collaborate and scale this revolutionary vehicle in the region. He also said that the company had a good headstart over competitors, with paid pre-orders of over 150 million Euros. The Business Breakfast agenda also featured presentations on SRTIP's partner services and startup support platforms, followed by the Shuraka' Majlis, a dedicated roundtable that enabled participants to exchange ideas and explore collaborative opportunities. Additionally, the event hosted one-on-one meetings between entrepreneurs and prospective investors, offering an ideal setting for networking and strategic dialogue in an innovation-driven environment. This edition of the Business Breakfast marks the integration of two of SRTIP's signature platforms — the Business Breakfast and the Partner Council — into a unified format under the Business Breakfast umbrella. The aim is to foster stronger engagement across the ecosystem and stimulate strategic conversations between the public and private sectors. According to a recent report, The Sharjah Research Technology and Innovation Park (SRTIP) and AIM Congress have entered into a partnership agreement to attract technology scaleups, create business opportunities, and support innovation. Under the agreement, SRTIP will offer exclusive packages to scaleups introduced through AIM's network, facilitating their setup and growth within the vibrant innovation park. In addition, the collaboration will promote the Sharjah Advanced Industry Accelerator (SAIA), SRTIP flagship programme designed to support late-stage startups in accessing advanced industry markets, engaging with decision-makers, and exploring pilot projects. Commenting on the partnership, SRTI Park CEO Hussain Al Mahmoudi said, 'SRTIP, one of the region's dynamic innovation zones, is delighted to team up with AIM Congress as we pursue our ambitious growth plans. We share synergies with AIM Congress whose goal is to foster investment opportunities and create stronger trade bonds between nations.'
