Telco to collaborate with Havas Middle East on publicizing the initiative.
Du, from Emirates Integrated Telecommunications Company (EITC), announced an exclusive competition for Emirati designers to redesign and create new uniforms for staff at its retail stores across the UAE.
Winners of the competition will receive a cash prize of AED50,000 along with an opportunity to deliver an innovative and first-of-its-kind uniform collection for Du stores in the country.
