The Service Ambassador programme consists of two segments – one for customer service employees and sales staff, and another for supervisors of outlets and stores.

Each programme is tailored to the role and functions of the respective target groups and their responsibilities towards consumers.


DET will supervise the programme for continuous improvements and support all subscribers and merchants to achieve the best outcomes. Ultimately, the programme seeks to support businesses and investors by increasing consumer confidence in Dubai and providing a unique shopping experience for residents and tourists.
