Colm McLoughlin was honored as one of the recipients of the prestigious Arabian Business Achievement Awards.
Dubai Duty Free’s Executive Vice Chairman and CEO, Colm McLoughlin was honored as one of the recipients of the prestigious Arabian Business Achievement Awards held to coincide with the ITP Media Group’s 30th Anniversary held on 13th November at JW Marriott Marquis, Dubai. Hosted by the BBC broadcaster Andrew Neil, the Arabian Business Achievement Awards selected the ten greatest achievers of the past three decades who have made a significant contribution to the region over the last 30 years.
Accepting the award from Ali Akawi, ITP Media Group CEO, Colm McLoughlin credited his success to the “can-do” attitude of Dubai, which he said encourages progress and growth. “It was easy for me to learn from other people, and whenever I’m in a situation like this, I don’t really feel that this award is mine. I feel it belongs to the Government of Dubai. It belongs to my Chairman, His Highness Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, who has been so supportive and has given such freedom to Dubai Duty Free to work.”
