Shoppers Jacob Acquah, a staff of the Mechanical Workshop (Cinema Section) of the Ministry of Information, Kingsley Kusi Asomah, an aluminium technician at Kenab Glazing Limited and an unemployed youngster, Sylvester Siaw Ansah, shrugged off stiff opposition from fellow shoppers to emerge respective winners of the coveted holiday tickets.

The ‘Triple Travel Trivia’ campaign was launched by Accra’s leading malls, West Hills Mall, Achimota Mall and Accra Mall on February 5 to infuse some excitement into the shopping experience at the malls and reward shoppers for their loyalty.

The trivia was open to the respective patrons of the three malls who shopped to the tune of Ghc 300.00 during the promo period. But to grab the slot for the vacation abroad, qualified shoppers from each of the malls had to slug it out with nine other finalists.

In the final trivia which took place at the weekend, 30 finalists chased tickets for lush holiday destinations in Dubai, Mauritius and Cape Town. The ultimate prize comprised roundtrip tickets for the winners as well as their partners, accommodation and destination tours and spending money of US$2,000 per winner for a stay of five days and four nights at the destination.

Jacob Acquah, a West Hills Mall shopper and winner of the ticket for the holiday in Dubai heaved a huge sigh of relief after moderator, Trigmatic, announced the final score in his favour. He had just survived a hot chase by the only female contestant, Davida Kenny.

“I shop here all the time; two years ago, I narrowly missed winning a car. I was not as lucky as I am today and I had to contend with top-up credits.  Today, I am the winner!’’ an emotional Acquah said as he clutched on to his dummy ticket and waved at the audience.

He said he would travel to Dubai with his wife, Gloria, but he could not determine exactly when they would travel because his wife is still nursing their little baby.

At Achimota Mall, an overjoyed Kingsley Kusi Asomah, 33, said after he was declared winner, that he would travel to Cape Town with his wife, Beatrice, in June.

“This is a clear act of God. I have never travelled abroad in my life; my wife goes on leave in June so we will both fly to Cape Town and enjoy the fun together,” he said.

Accra Mall’s winner, 24-year-old Sylvester Siaw Ansah, single and unemployed said he’s in a fix as to who to take with him on his vacation to Mauritius.

“I’m still thinking…I am single. I wanted to go with my mom but she’ll be working so I will have to take a decision on who to go to Mauritius with,” he said.

All three winners have up until December 2018 to take their vacations.

In a congratulatory message to the winners, Jonathan Lotter, Asset Manager for AttAfrica Ghana Portfolio told the press later that he was happy with the level of interest shown in the promotion by respective customers and patrons of the three malls.

Lotter said West Hills Mall, Achimota Mall and Accra Mall highly cherished the patronage and loyalty of their respective shoppers and reminded all patrons that the essence of such generous promotions is to underscore the premium we place on customers as valuable stakeholders.

“For your preference of our malls and your loyalty, you can be sure that the managements of West Hills Mall, Achimota Retail Centre and Accra Mall will continue to cater for your comfort and convenience at our centres and spice up your shopping experiences with such high-value promotions,” he said.

Accra’s three leading shopping malls, West Hills Mall, Accra Mall and Achimota Retail Centre, jointly launched the ‘Triple Travel Trivia’ a month ago as a loyalty reward promo for their shoppers and also to infuse some excitement into the respective shopping experience at the malls.

The winning shopper in the West Hills Mall trivia will earn a holiday trip to Dubai, while the winners at Accra Mall and Achimota Mall fly to holiday destinations in Mauritius and Cape Town respectively. All three holiday slots have been pre-packaged to allow winners to travel with their partner, both of whom will be fully covered by the prize, comprising all-expense-paid flights, destination tours and accommodation, in addition to US$ 2,000 spending money for a stay of five days and four nights at the destination. Entries for the promo closed at all the malls last Wednesday, March 14, and the final trivia game is set to take place separately at each of the three malls on Friday, 23, Saturday 24 and Sunday 25 March.

The trivia is open to shoppers who, over the promo period, spent a minimum of Ghc300 at any shop or a number of shops at West Hills Mall, Accra Mall or Achimota Mall respectively. Shoppers’ entry slips are filled out  with their personal and shopping information and dropped into an Entry Box for a public draw by the National Gaming Commission to shortlist 30 finalists – ten from each mall.

Mr. Victor Adu Amankwa MIS Manager at the National Gaming Commission disclosed, after he led a team to conduct three separate draws to select 10 finalists for each of the three malls, that over 3,400 shoppers took part in the Triple Travel Trivia promo.

Once an entry was picked electronically from among the lot, an official of the Gaming Commission would instantly and publicly dial the shopper’s given phone number to inform them about their selection among the last 10 for the final Trivia and about how close they are to winning a free holiday trip abroad.

Mr. Jonathan Lotter, Asset Manager for AttAfrica Ghana Portfolio, said, “because the prizes at stake are of very high value (all-expense-paid trips to three dreamland destinations), credibility and fair play are critical, and that’s why I’m particularly happy that these draws to select the 30 finalists were conducted by the National Gaming Commission itself.”

Mr. Michael Konadu, Marketing Manager for West Hills Mall, explained that each of the three malls will host its own final trivia game night on either March 23, 24 and 25 respectively at which the qualifying shoppers will compete to grab one of the three holiday slots.

 ‘Now that we know the challengers for all three trivia showdowns, let’s all brace ourselves for thrilling encounters with our participant shoppers and see who get to win these enticing summer holiday prizes,” said Mr. Konadu.

He said the final trivia games have been planned to be exceptionally recreational for all and each final event at all three malls would be moderated by Trigmatic, a celebrated Ghanaian musician and popular host on ‘Y’FM.

On Saturday, July 1, the keys to a brand new Chevrolet Cruise Saloon car which has taunted patrons and customers at West Hills Mall for 91 days, will be handed over to the luckiest of a group of shoppers fiercely vying to drive home the vehicle.

Since the ‘Cruise down to West Hills Mall’ promotion was launched in April, every customer who shopped to the tune of Ghc200 or more received incredible instant prizes, with thousands of shoppers going home with high-value items like LED TV sets, blenders, kitchen microwaves and smartphones

However, aside the gift items which may be redeemed instantly, if shoppers were lucky to find the inscription “Cruise Finalist” on their scratch cards, they automatically qualified to participate in the final phase of the promotion – a thrilling game of nerves that will determine which shopper drives home the Ghc120,000 Chevrolet Cruise car.

By Friday, June 30, a small group of lucky shoppers would have qualified to participate in the final game, but only one of them will eventually snatch away the keys to the car on Saturday, July 1.

“Even so, all the other finalists who may not be lucky enough to win the car will take home some exciting consolation prizes. You see, what makes this promo far more exciting than others is that, it has been designed to ensure that every shopper at West Hills Mall is a winner. Each one of the scratch cards issued to our shoppers doing Ghc200 or more bears a prize which they redeem instantly,” said Marketing Manager, Michael Oduro Konadu.

Instant prize winnings by customers were abundantly confirmed at the mall on the Ed-al-Fitr holiday as hundreds of shoppers kept winning and redeeming one prize after another.

“This is awesome! We just came to buy provisions of Ghc250 for the house and look what we got,” said a jubilant Frantz Asamoah, a young technician who lives in Dzorwulo, as he and his fiancée tugged away a Samsung LED television set he had just won.

“Saturday will be an exciting finish for this promo and it will be full of suspense. All qualified finalists will be here at the mall. At an open ceremony in the hallway, they will randomly select personal numbers and will be asked to pick sealed envelopes from letter-boxes randomly assigned to those numbers. Only one envelope will have the keys to the car and any of the shoppers who finds the key will drive the car home,” said Konadu.

West Hills Mall, Ghana’s leading destination for family shopping and recreation, has built a strong reputation for adding value to the shopping experience of its patrons, regularly rewarding customer loyalty by introducing a variety of exciting promotions. On the record, this would be the third time in just two years that West Hills Mall has put up a brand new vehicle as prize for loyal customers and shoppers.

The post West Hills Mall’s Chevrolet Cruise up for grabs on Saturday appeared first on Citi 97.3 FM - Relevant Radio. Always.

A brand new Chevrolet saloon car which has been on display at the foyer of West Hills Mall since April has suddenly triggered off a wave of shopping which mall management described as unprecedented.

The Ghc120, 000 Chevrolet Cruise will remain on display for two more weeks as, come Republic Day – July 1, 2017 – the luxury saloon car will have to be driven home as a prize by one lucky shopper at the close of West Hills Mall’s special loyalty promotion dubbed “Cruise down to West Hills Mall”.

‘Yes. The countdown has begun for the search for a lucky owner for the sleek Chevrolet Cruise. This may be a normal loyalty reward promo, but what makes it so exceptional and exciting is that, apart from the ultimate prize of a brand new car, everybody who shops here to the tune of just Ghc200 gets to win something valuable for themselves,’ says Mall Manager Jonathan Lotter.

Indeed, since the launch of the promo in April, several thousands of shoppers have carried home assorted prizes, including TV sets, blenders, cell phones, microwaves, flasks, water bottles, key rings, airtime and even ice cream!

Since April,2017 every customer at West Hills Mall who shopped to the tune of just Ghc200 or more has walked away with some kind of prize, but shoppers who are lucky enough to find the inscription “Cruise” on their cards qualify to participate in the final phase of the promo – a suspense-packed game of nerves – on Republic Day, April 1, 2017 to determine who wins the ultimate prize and drive away the brand new Chevrolet Cruise saloon car.

“The level of enthusiasm here is simply incredible. Several thousands of prizes have already been given away. But in spite of all the fantastic items shoppers are winning just for being at the Mall and shopping up to Ghc200 or more, every customer seems to have an eye on driving home the Cruise saloon car. That’s what makes the final of this exciting loyalty promo on Republic Day so special,” said Michael Oduro Konadu, Marketing Manager.

West Hills Mall, Accra’s principal destination for family shopping and recreation, has notched up a reputation for adding value to the shopping experience of its patrons and especially for rewarding customer loyalty in a variety of ways through regular promotions. This would be the third time in just two years that the West hills Mall has put up a brand new car for grabs by loyal customers and shoppers.

In the ‘Cruise down to West Hills Mall’ promo, shoppers are issued with scratch cards once they shop to the tune of Ghc200 or more at any store in the mall; the scratch cards spell out exactly what the shopper has won and the prizes are redeemed instantly. On the other hand, if a card bears the inscription “cruise”, the shopper automatically qualifies to participate in the final game of the promo on Republic Day to determine who drives home the Chevrolet Cruise.

“So it’s been prizes galore for our shoppers since April. But it looks like everybody wants to take away the car and that is what has made these last few days of the promo so heated and competitive. For us, the important thing is that, come Republic Day, one of our cherished and most loyal customers should drive home the Chevrolet Cruise,” Konadu said.
