POLAND. Flemingo Group subsidiary Baltona has started a new operation at Poznan Airport, where it has a master concession agreement for commercial activities in Departures.
In May this year Baltona entered an agreement with Poznan Airport to manage 1,900sq m of space, including duty free shops, restaurants and coffee shops and Poland Zoom outlet offering destination goods, news & books.
The company started its operations in July with a 498sq m duty free outlet housing the main core categories, with a wide range of Polish and international brands, regional and local products as well as a children’s section. Also opened then was F&B brand Coffee Corner (in 200sq m), which sells drinks, sandwiches, cakes and pastries, and has Wi-Fi and stations for mobile phones and laptops.
This was followed in August by the launch of a 150sq m fashion outlet and a Poland Zoom unit. The boutique carries watches, jewellery, sunglasses, bags, handbags, luggage and accessories. Poland Zoom features local and regional products, travel accessories, books, newspapers, snacks and drinks.
