“The MENA region is a new focus for OPPO, and we have been operating in several markets here since late 2014. As the leading IT exhibition in the Middle East, GITEX is the ideal venue for OPPO to present our best products and to show the consumers here just how important they are to us.” says Sky Li, Vice President of OPPO and Managing Director of International Mobile Business.
OPPO established its Dubai office in 2014 and held its first conference in the city in December. Today, OPPO smartphones are available in the United Arab Emirates’ three major appliance chain stores (Sharaf DG, Jumbo and Geant), numerous independent sales outlets and the Middle East’s largest electronics provider, souq.com.
