Under the auspices of the 2003 Gulf Council Unification (GCU) Customs Union Agreement, the GCC members adopted an across-the- board common external tariff rate of five percent (5%) for most products. The GCC also agreed to develop a list of products to which higher tariff rates will apply. Likewise, certain staple items such as food and pharmaceutical products are exempt from tariff.

13 About Foosball Product History & insights

Foosball is a social game that requires two- four players. Even beyond the requirement for multiple players, when people play foosball it is typically in a social setting with socializing occurring during play. While there are some other casual players, most are or recently were college students.

Foosball • Foosball, or table soccer is a popular table game that looks sort of like a soccer game. • The name is derived from the German word for field soccer which is fubball. • The adopted name in the States is foosball or table soccer. The game itself originated in Germany during the late 1920's and early 1930's. • A fact that may come as a surprise to many is that foosball is played on a competitive (professional) level. • There are several tours which exist with regional, national and international competitions. • Within the U.S. there are two well established associations, Table Soccer Association and the American Table Soccer Federation. • So while most participants are recreational players, there are many people who play foosball at a competitive level. • The bulk of Foosball Hall customers are the recreational players.

14 Key Questions

• Our market entry studies provide practical and actionable findings to our clients by seeking to answer the questions most frequently asked by new market entrants: • What is the size of the target market? How do I know the target market is big enough for my product offering to be a success there? • How can I ensure that the target market understands my offering? • How should I market and promote my offering in a new territory? • Will my products or services need to be adjusted to meet the needs of the target market, and if so how? • How can I price my products and services in the new target market? • What are the routes to market? How should I seek to access the marketplace? • If there is an opportunity, what type of business would be best placed to make the most of this opportunity? For example, should we begin by setting up a representative office or subsidiary? What about a joint venture? Or should we begin by tapping into a local distribution network?

Rather they are investing on BTL - Below the line activities. These are like giving coupons, road shows, buzz marketing etc. • BTL are very cheap and cost affective and we will see in future a skewness towards BTL as it is cost effective.

Let’s FoosBall

29 4.0 Market Analysis Summary • Foosball Hall has identified two target customer segments which are particularly attractive. • The first segment customers are the more casual players who are looking for some sort of activity (such as foosball, pool, darts) to occupy their time as they socialize and drink. The second group comprises the competitive foosball players. This group travels to where ever there are tables. • While the two groups share the same interest in foosball, they are distinct groups and each one will need to be reached via different methods. • Foosball Hall participates within the general pool hall industry, businesses that offer beer and pool typically. • The foosball parlor industry is too small and new to have its own industry classification. While foosball is a very popular table game, there are just not enough foosball dedicated halls to have its own industry. Here lies the attractiveness of the industry, most of the foosball playing occurs on college campuses, there are few outside establishments that offer a pool-like foosball hall.

4.1 Market Segmentation Foosball Hall has identified two distinct customer segments that they will target: Casual players This segment is typically made up of college men who enjoy playing foosball with their colleagues. This group of individuals typically plays to pass time and have fun as opposed to playing at a competitive level in tournaments. Characteristics of the individuals that make up this group are: • Gender 85% male. • Ages 17- 28. • College students- 74% of the participants are in college or recently graduated from college. • 69% play pool but prefer foosball because it combines similar levels of skill but at a much faster, exciting pace.

Competitive players This group plays to win. Foosball is not about a fun way to pass time but a serious game at which they work hard, developing competitive skills. This group is far smaller but the individuals are active participants. There are two different manufacturer based associations for foosball and numerous different player based associations. In fact, as a testament to the level of seriousness, size and participation levels of these players, almost all states in the U.S. have their own associations. It is this group of people that will be the most active participants in the offered tournaments.

30 4.2 Target Market Segment Strategy

• Foosball Hall will successfully target two distinct segments of the market. While both groups play foosball, the reasons that they play are different. Understanding this will help Foosball Hall accurately target the specific group.

• The first group while smaller in size is far more organized and will therefore be much easier to reach. Although seriously competitive players are growing in number, it is a select group of people that compete in foosball.

• With the advent of the Internet, this group has become quite organized in terms of associations, tournaments, and general awareness of each other. This being said, it is easy to reach this group through advertisements and networking with the different associations. The competitive players are always looking for new places to play, there are generally not enough tables to accommodate them.

• This will be the easiest group to reach. This group is talkative amongst themselves and always looking for new places and new tournaments.

• The casual players will be more difficult to target. This group of people comes from a fairly large cross section of the population, people that like some sort of table game while they hang out with friends and drink beer.

• The obvious group to try to reach are college students.

• Madison was chosen in part because of its population of foosball players as well as the huge student population to draw off of. Students are the perfect segment of the population that likes to drink, play games, has disposable income, and has extra time for leisure activities.

• Additionally, foosball is a social game that requires two- four players. Even beyond the requirement for multiple players, when people play foosball it is typically in a social setting with socializing occurring during play. While there are some other casual players, most are or recently were college students.

• 29% of the GCC’s population was under 15 years of age in 2008, although this figure has been falling gradually, compared with 31.6% in 2004 and 35% in 1999. • By 2020, 15-year-olds are projected to account for just under one-quarter of the population. • Meanwhile, the continued influx of working-age expatriates will add to the bulge in the workingage population, which is normally defined as the 15-65 age group. • However, many nationals do not start work until around age 21, when they have completed their tertiary education. The slowdown in the birth rate in recent decades also suggests that the number of pensioners will rise faster than the number of under-15s, causing the old/young dependency ratio to increase gradually. The relative youth of the population will limit the healthcare burden on public spending, but young GCC nationals will also suffer from what are sometimes termed diseases of affluence, such as diabetes or smoking related diseases.

Country Profile UAE UAE

• UAE is the largest retail market in the GCC region, with the highest per capita retail spending, attributed to its higher tourism and expatriate population spend. Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah are the prime retail markets in the country with significant presence of modern retail outlets. • A unique feature of the UAE retail industry is innovation of malls. Retailers promote malls as leisure destinations to increase footfall. Shopping centres in Dubai have facilities such as indoor ski slopes, rock climbing, aquariums and indoor skydiving. • Promotion of Dubai as a global leisure and shopping destination has positively impacted UAE’s retail space. • Shopping events in Dubai such as Dubai Summer Surprises (DSS), the Dubai Shopping Festival (DSF) and Dubai Duty-Free (DDF) are major contributors to the UAE’s retail industry. • Along with dominant local retailers such as EMKE Group, MAF Group and Damas International, international stores such as Carrefour, IKEA, Debenhams, Harvey Nichols and Bloomingdales, and luxury stores like Cartier, Hermès, Rolex, Louis Vitton and Tiffany’s have also enhanced footfall in the region’s retail market.

Country Profile KSA KSA

• The Saudi Arabian retail sector is one of the largest in theGCC region, albeit with low per capita retail spending. • The sector growth in the country is attributed to its large youthful population and large number of tourists visiting the country for Hajj and Umrah pilgrimages every year. • The changing position of women in Saudi Arabian society will help the retail sector to grow further. • The Saudi retail market is highly fragmented and dominated by single-outlet operations – independent grocers, food specialists and leisure and personal goods retailers. However, as the industry is maturing, various participants are undergoing consolidation and many chain outlets have emerged. Al-zizia Panda of the Savola Group consolidated its lead in the market by acquiring operations of Giant Stores and Géant during 2008-09. • During the last few years, Saudi Arabia has attracted various new retailers from across the globe – indicating growing brand consciousness among the Saudi consumers. International companies such as Carrefour, Debenhams and IKEA have entered the market through regional or local franchisers.

• The Bahrain retail market is significantly less developed than Saudi Arabia and UAE, with convenience stores comprising a large section of the sector. Moreover, traditional markets (souks) dominate the market for traditional goods and services – such as gold, fabric and sweets. • However, Bahrain’s retail market is set to benefit from a favourable long-term economic outlook, growing western styles of retailing and a steady rise in disposable income. • Growing tourism and annual events such as the Formula One motor race also generate significant demand for retail. Moreover, tourism from the strict Saudi regime to liberal Bahrain for shopping and outings is also a driver to retail sector growth in the country. • As the retail sector is developing in Bahrain, many international retailers such as H&M, Debenhams, Zara and Mango have marked their advent in the country

• Kuwait’s retail sector is primarily driven by its high expatriate population along with foreign workers crossing the border from Iraq. The country has a significant share of non- organized retail stores, including fresh produce shops, bakeries, poultry and seafood shops. • Grocery retail of Kuwait is dominated by the government funded Union of Consumer Co- operative Societies (UCCS) stores, while private retail participants are restricted to commercial zones. Moreover, the country has over 2,000 privately run smaller grocery stores. • As the retail sector is maturing in Kuwait, presence of shopping malls is increasing and larger shopping malls are coming up. Envisaging latent potential in the Kuwaiti retail sector, 29 new international retailers entered the market during 2008.

Country Profile Oman Oman

• Oman retail sector is noticeably smaller and underdeveloped when compared with the markets of Saudi Arabia and UAE. As household income has increased over the past few years, consumer spending of Omanis has been on the rise, thereby generating demand for more retailers to enter the country. • In addition to the opening of new malls, retailers are also focusing on improving consumers’ shopping experience to increase footfall. For instance, when Carrefour entered Oman, the Sultan Center introduced a loyalty program for its customers and renovated its retail space to stay competitive. • Besides local retailers such as Jawad Sultan, WJ Towell Group, international retailers such as Zara, Gap, Banana Republic, Forever 21 and Borders have marked their presence in the country.

GCC non-grocery sales beat global averages The demographic profile of the GCC nations demonstrates that the most active consumers fall in the mid- to upper-spending bracket, indicating a high level of discretionary spending within the region.

In Saudi Arabia, non-grocery retail channels accounted for almost two-thirds of sales in 2008, compared to a global average of only one-half. Modern shopping centres provide entertainment and social opportunities for Saudis since there are no bars, discos or pubs in the country. In discretionary spending, non-essential products such as fashion, consumer electronics, leisure and personal goods (jewellery, watches and children's products) commanded a high share. 58

59 UAE Source : Page 22 GCC Retail Industry Report

• Positioning Dubai as a global leisure and shopping destination has had a significant impact on the UAE’s retail industry. Shopping events in Dubai, such as Dubai Summer Surprises (DSS), the Dubai Shopping Festival (DSF) and the Dubai Duty-Free (DDF), are major contributors to the UAE’s retail industry. DDF reported annual sales of US$1.1 billion for 2009, representing a y-oy increase of 3.8%. Similarly, in Saudi Arabia, the retail sector benefits from the large number of Muslim tourists performing the annual Hajj and Umrah pilgrimages.

The Dubai Mall

is the largest shopping mall in Dubai, maybe even the world depending on how you measure it, (and until the Mall of Arabia opens) and is located in the Downtown Burj Dubai area on Doha St, off Defense Roundabout. After the usual Dubai construction delays, it only opened 2 years late, in November 2008. Some Dubai residents thought the new mall deserved top spot on their whine list but we think The Dubai Mall is great. If (or when) you visit, have a look at one of the largest fish tanks in the world, buy some books at Kinokuniya BookWorld, walk through the gold souk area, have a look at the indoor waterfall, watch a movie at Reel Cinemas, get an adrenaline fix at Sega Republic, and go for a quiet coffee at The Grove. Or head next door to Souk Al Bahar after your shopping expedition and have a meal overlooking the Burj Dubai Lake while watching . After 04 January 2009, you'll also be able to head to the Burj Dubai observation deck for a spectacular view over Dubai. There are information kiosks everywhere in the mall, with helpful attendants to answer your questions (although you'll often get different answers if you ask more than one), and information brochures with maps and a list of shops www.thedubaimall.com • Total area of Dubai Mall is 12 million sq feet (about 1.1 million sq meters) • Total internal floor area about 5.9 million sq ft • Total gross leasable area (GLA) about 3.8 million sq ft (the same as 50 football fields) • 14,000 car parking spaces • 120-160 restaurants, cafes, and other food and beverage shops with seating capacity for 3000 people (different figures seen in Emaar press releases, most recent is 160 outlets) • 33,000 animals in the aquarium (less if the sharks aren't fed on time, or the fish and chip shop runs low on supplies) • 30 million - total number visitors expected in the first year of operation 96 Burj Dubai

The Burj Dubai (Arabic for "Dubai Tower" but you might have a good chance of fooling newbies to Dubai that it means "don't look down") is a mixed use tower with commercial and residential areas, under construction in the Downtown Burj Dubai development, with an official opening date of 04 January 2010 (delayed from rumours of 09/09/09 and 02 December 2009 opening dates), and final height of 828m (kept secret until opening day and slightly higher than the most common rumour of 818m). The tower's main claim to fame is that it will be the tallest man-made structure in the world once completed, and in fact, the Burj Dubai became just that in April 2008 when the height reached 629 meters. When completed, the top of the Burj Dubai was taller than the highest mountain peak (or hillock) of over 30 countries, including those lofty alpine nations of , Latvia, the Maldives, the , and Uruguay, but not the UAE itself, which has a mountain top (Jebel Jais) in Ras Al Khaimah more than twice the height of the Burj Dubai. And to beat Mt Everest, you'd need to stack another 10 Burj Dubais on top of the first one.

UAE Trade : Shopping Malls (2/4)

Dragonmart Dragonmart (or Dragon Mart), on the Dubai-Hatta road, after Emirates Rd junction heading in Hatta / Oman direction Hatta on the right-hand side (location). Many small shops (about 4000 with total area of 150,000 sq m, mall length is 1.2 km) selling Chinese manufactured products. Not quite the same as other shopping malls in Dubai but an interesting place to visit if you want a plastic bucket or a cheap plasma TV from China. Expansion of Dragonmart planned with construction to start in 2012? An additional 100,000 sq meters (1 million sq feet) of retail area to become available. Dubai Mall see 'The Dubai Mall' below. Mall in Dubai Marina (not the same as 'Marina Mall' in Abu Dhabi). With hotel and apartments, total development cost is over AED 1.4 billion. Opening date 22 December 2008. Mall location on the Dubai Marina water's edge is appealing. (DOM) open 22 August 2007. Lots of bargains at factory shops all under one roof. Perhaps. Emirates Co-op Al Mizhar Emirates Co-op Al Mizhar - open 2008? Large Emirates Co-op supermarket with opening hours 0700-0200, small food court upstairs, MacDonalds downstairs.

Includes Grand Hypermarket, money exchange, ATM (Standard Chartered). Hamarain Shopping Centre Hamarain Shopping Centre - in Deira, has pretty lights on the outside. Hamriyah Shopping Center in Al Hamriyah, not the same as the Hamarain Centre. Ibn Battuta Mall IBM / IBSM) not as large as MOTE, but much more fascinating to walk through (if a shopping center can ever be called fascinating). Several themed areas - Andalusia, China, Egypt, India, Persia, Tunisia which reflect the travels of a 14th century Arab explorer named Ibn Battuta. Scattered throughout the mall are displays of documents and other artifacts related to Mr Battuta's travels and history of those regions. All items are reconstructed but look authentic if you squint your eyes a bit. Ibn Battuta Ibn Battuta phase II expansion will double the size of IBM with additional themed areas based on Hejaz, Morocco, , and Yemen. In March 2009, Nakheel announced expansion plans would be delayed 12 months. Instead of the ubiquitous Instead of the ubiquitous Carrefour, Ibn Battuta Mall has Geant, another French superstore selling groceries and cheap underpants. Otherwise, mostly the same shops you'd find anywhere but less crowded. The only Lego shop in Dubai is here, also the only IMAX cinema in Dubai (if you don't know what that is, it's similar to sitting in the front row of a normal cinema). Food court at Jebel Ali end has fast junk food. Food court at Dubai end has slow junk food. Both areas have a good selection and there's a couple of posher restaurants in the China Court area. Several Starbucks with one in a spectacular atrium in the middle of the mall. There are electric golf carts to ferry you from one end of the mall to the other, costs 5 dhs.

Khan Murjan Khan Murjan - (Khan Murjan images) underground souk, part of the Wafi Center complex, was due to open by end 2007 but delayed till early 2008. Based on a 14th century Suq / Souq - the Khan Marjan Caravanserai in Baghdad, Iraq (renovated as a restaurant in the early 1990s, unknown what state it's in now), and with further inspiration taken from other souks around the Middle East. Consider it more of a tourist attraction than a full-on shopping center, a bit like Souk Madinat or Souk Al Bahar, while the Wafi Mall should satiate your purchasing desires. Well worth a visit though. Lamcy Plaza large pink building on Sheikh Zayed Road near the Karama exit and opposite the American Hospital / Al Nasr Leisureland. Clothing shops always seem to have sales, and the top floor location of the supermarket seems odd. High atrium has a London Tower Bridge halfway up where you can sit and have coffee. Decent enough food court, two cinemas, parking difficult in evenings. Operated by Lals Group. 99 UAE Trade : Shopping Malls (3/4)

100 UAE Trade : Shopping Malls (4/4)

Sunset Mall in the Sunset Development on Jumeirah Beach Road, Jumeira 3. About 100 shops and restaurants with seaviews. The Sunset Mall developer, Dubai Investment Properties, is marketing it as a luxury shopping destination (which almost everywhere in Dubai does - even the Luxury Chicken Gutting and Hair Cutting Saloon in the depths of Deira) but in this case, given the location on the beach in Jumeirah, it might be a believable claim. Might be open in September 2009 (delayed from April 2009) ... but as of August 2011 still not open. Update - first shops (only one or two) open December 2011 - others expected to open in 2012.

The Pointe at Palm Jumeirah development announced by Nakheel 11 January 2012, consisting mostly of restaurants, cafes, fountains, and some boutique shops. Location opposite the Atlantis Hotel on the Jumeirah Palm island. Initial plans include 120 restaurants, 75 shops, an extra stop on the Jumeirah Palm monorail, and a nice marina promenade to walk along. Area about 135,000 sq m (not clear if that is retail area or total development area). Completion date supposedly by mid to end of 2013 (but Nakheel scheduled completion dates are often overly optimistic by a year or two). Times Square Center Times Square Center - Sheikh Zayed Road, near Mall of the Emirates (on the same side). Opened May 2007. Small shopping mall with a large Sharif (not Sharafi) electronics store (huge in fact), and the "Chill Out" Ice Lounge, or Ice Bar, where you sit on ice chairs, and eat and drink from plates and glasses made of ice.

106 Studio Diwaniyah This spatial design studio will literally take on the format and physicality of a Diwaniyah. Within this discursive, social and relational environment, the students will be asked to design, build and implement an enabler and/or disabler of communication. It is the explicit intent that these interventions should stand in an intense reciprocal relationship to each other. Studio Diwaniyah will be conceived as a 1:1 experimental laboratory.
