Dubai Shopping Festival 2013 Provides Winning Moment To Hatta Teenager

Mohammed Marzouk Al Matroushy, 13, becomes proud winner of Nissan 370Z sports coupe after his father enters his name in draw

A young Emirati boy is the proud winner of a Nissan sports coupe after his name was drawn in the Dubai Shopping Festival’s (DSF) Nissan Grand Raffle, which offers one of several ways to win amazing prizes during the 18th edition of the festival this year.

Teenager Mohammed Marzouk Eid Al Matroushy lives in Dubai’s Hatta region with his family and was declared the winner of a gleaming new Nissan 370Z at the draw held on 26th January. It was Mohammad’s father who had put the 13-year-old’s name on one of the raffle tickets that he had entered for the draw. Mohammed’s father works at the emergency department in Dubai’s Rashid Hospital and had stopped at an ENOC petrol station near the Al Wasl Sports Club after work to top up his car’s petrol tank. While there, he bought a lot items from the convenience store, for which he received five raffle coupons to enter the daily Nissan Grand Raffle.

Al Matroushy said that he filled each coupon in the name of one of his five children and Mohammed came out the winner. There was joy and disbelief in the Al Matroushy household, he added, and Mohammed’s siblings were very happy that their brother had won. The car was welcome, he said, but added that since they lived in a hilly area they had decided to sell the sports coupe and use the proceeds to buy a four-wheel drive vehicle that better suited the terrain.

Thanking the DSF and its organizers, the Dubai Events and Promotions Establishment, Al Matroushy said the festival provided amazing opportunities that changed the lives of people who visited it as well as those living in the country.

The Nissan Grand Raffle is among several winning opportunities being presented by DSF 2013 and gives shoppers the chance to drive home one of 12 different Nissan models. Up for grabs are the Micra Hatchback, the Sunny, Altima and Maxima Sedans, the Qashqai, Murano, Patrol, Juke, Xterra, Pathfinder, and Armada SUVs, and the 370Z Sports Coupe. Customers are entitled to a raffle coupon for every AED20 spent on non-fuel purchases at ENOC and EPPCO petrol stations or for every AED200 spent at participating retail outlets.
