WITH AFRICA DUTY FREE
'Being happy never goes out of style'
CURRENT SITUATION IN AFRICAN DUTY FREE MARKET
Unlike the global norm, Africa's travel retail industry presents distinct characteristics. In roughly 70% of DutyFree locations, 'duty-free' prices tend to be higher than those available in local retail. Throughout the continent, there is a promising opportunity for enhancing retail environments. As African consumers travel more frequently, they increasingly recognize that travel retail should not only offer excellent value but also provide a pleasant experience with a comprehensive product selection.
The benchmark for this experience is set by major hubs such as Johannesburg, Dubai, Amsterdam Schiphol, Paris Charles de Gaulle, Brussels and London Heathrow, which serve as primary transit points for African destinations. This has led to a growing demand within the African market to reach the same level of quality and service as the rest of the world. ADF provides added value by addressing this gap through offering services to Duty Free environment, like shop-in-shop and retail management together with a real-value travel offering !'
