The UAE’s Golden Jubilee is being celebrated this year on a massive scale. Along with the public sector, a number of private sector companies are also joining the celebrations.

Carrefour, which is owned and operated by Majid Al Futtaim in the UAE, on Thursday said it will be serving free ice cream from its ice cream trucks to neighbourhoods across Sharjah, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Ajman from December 2 to 4.

Delicious flavours representative of the colours of the UAE flag will include vanilla, strawberry, chocolate, and pistachio.

Emirati employees of the leading retailer have volunteered to treat residents and tourists alike to free ice cream. The Emirati retailer is giving away Dh2.5 million in the run-up to National Day to over 5,000 Carrefour customers.

Every day, 500 customers will win Dh500, while five customers will be randomly selected to win Dh50,000 on December 2. In addition, 500 products will be on sale with up to 50 per cent discount on major categories including food and beverage, local fresh produce, electronics, home and kitchen appliances, and much more.
