The planned expansion of Al Maktoum International Airport has recently also given us an update on its retail space expansion plans.
The development is expected to more than double retail space to at least 100,000 square meters up from the 40,000 square meters currently used by Dubai Duty Free. The workforce is also planned to be doubled from 5,700 staff today to over 10,000 staff by 2033.
The retail growth comes as part of the wider Al Maktoum International Airport expansion plans which will see the Dubai government invest some US $ 35 Billion to expand to accommodate some 260 Million passengers in the next 10 years.
