Total ancillary revenue for Salik reached AED 8.7 million driven by revenues from partnerships with Emaar Malls and Parkonic.
The strong performance was driven by increased transaction volumes at Dubai Mall in addition to increasing traction in its cooperation with Parkonic since mid-February, with rollout across several locations progressing well, as operations are now live in 73 out of 154 locations, Salik said in a statement. Furthermore, the company’s partnership with Liva Group has continued to gain good traction with consumers during H1.
