Two major retailers in the city, located in the United Arab Emirates , said they had slashed their prices to reflect the tax cut. “Buying your favorite drinks is now easier and cheaper than ever,” Maritime and Mercantile International announced on its Instagram account on Sunday. MMI, one of Dubai’s biggest alcohol retailers and a subsidiary of the state-owned Emirates group, has 21 stores across the city, according to its website.
Facing emerging competition from countries in the region, several UAE cities have shifted toward globally attractive policies over the past years, including the legalization of cohabitation by unmarried couples, and allowing the sale of alcohol during the holy month of Ramadan, which was previously banned across the country. Most recently, a Monday to Friday work week was introduced to synchronize with global business, after years of a Sunday to Thursday schedule.
Wow!

For that matter, why did Dubai remove the 30% alcohol tax, just because it wanted to attract more tourists to retool and sell to tourists again.
While here in Nigeria some sections of the country are destroying Alcohol.
While Hisbah in Kano are destroying them.
Dubai is Heaven on earth.
Didn't take them long to adjust after observing the disappointing tourist numbers for Qatar2022
Inshallah 🤣
Much smarter stance to take on it.
