(MENAFN - Muscat Daily) Muscat- Online shopping promotes the need for speed by supporting swift delivery timelines, physical shopping invites you to slow down and use the shopping experience as a means of socialising with family and friends.

Keeping this in mind, the Autumn Trade Fair (ATF) is set to be your gateway to a great shopping experience from December 29 to January 4, 2018 at the Oman International Exhibition Centre.

Organised by Oman International Trade & Exhibitions (OITE), ATF will take place from 10am to 1pm and 5pm to 10pm daily (Thursday timings will be from 10am to 1pm and 5pm to 11pm and Friday timings will be from 4pm to 11pm). This year, since ATF will take place towards the end of the year; it marks the perfect occasion for shoppers to make the most of the holiday and new year season by browsing through the exhibition space at the fair housing more than 250 exhibitors from over ten participating countries with products that will stop visitors in their tracks during this week-long shopping affair. As the duration of ATF coincides with the typical payday week in Oman, shoppers can also feel more confident about saving up for a massive shopping bonanza.

Now in its 23rd edition, ATF is Oman's largest shopping extravaganza, and provides you the perfect opportunity to obtain desired local and international brands via the best-you-can-get-offers from product categories related to clothing, perfumes, accessories, leather products, toys, games, cosmetics and textiles.

Visitors looking for a local touch can browse through local handicrafts and textiles by visiting the Omani products pavilion while visitors interested in sourcing international brands can kick-start their shopping sprees with quality products. The fair will also present visitors with new product launches, shopping deals and bargains on offer. Visitors can also capitalise on 'Ladies Day on December 31 (10am to 1pm) and Families Day on December 31 (5pm to 10pm).
