Analyst Review

The leading global travel retail company, Flamingo is taking care of almost all the duty-free travel retail shops in India and abroad. However, now the company is entering in the duty paid travel retail business, as the number of domestic passengers is increasing across various countries. Thus, leading travel retail players are trying to expand their business in the duty paid travel retail market. However, the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the duty-paid and duty-free travel retail sector.

Travel restrictions imposed across EU Member States and beyond have resulted in large declines in passenger numbers in aviation and maritime transport traffic, resulting in dramatically lower turnover for travel shops and lost sales for suppliers in this channel. However, in 2023, there will be a boom in travel and tourism, which is expected to foster the demand for clothing, cosmetics, gourmet products, and technology retail.

The Europe and the Middle East and Africa duty paid travel retail market is expected to develop due to rapid urbanization and societal changes in the region. Furthermore, middle-class individuals' discretionary spending has increased, economic conditions have changed, and technology advancements have aided market expansion by making it easier to get transportation and book hotels through online portals. In the next few years, the demand for duty paid travel retail products in Europe and the Middle East & Africa will continue to grow, due to surge in demand for customized and limited-edition products.
