INDIA. The Asia Pacific Travel Retail Association (APTRA) India Conference will take place in Mumbai next February, with Ospree Duty Free as the host partner.
APTRA President & King Power Group (Hong Kong) Group CEO Sunil Tuli commented: “The support from the industry for APTRA’s first major international conference, held in Delhi in March 2024, surpassed our expectations. So many leading companies joined as partners, and over 250 delegates attended from as far away as Chicago and Brisbane.
“It is clear that all eyes are on India, and we know we have started momentum that needs to be continued in 2025 and beyond.
“We are absolutely delighted that Ospree has agreed to join us as host partner in 2025. I am sure they will help us deliver a compelling programme with more valuable insights and learnings that help the industry capitalise on this extraordinary market.”
Ospree Duty Free CEO Avishek Bambii Das said: “The APTRA India Conference in Delhi was exceptional, with rich insights, an amazing global audience and convivial evenings.
“It will be an honour for Ospree Duty Free to host the APTRA India Conference 2025 and to welcome the industry to our home in Mumbai. We are looking forward to creating another memorable event for all the attendees.”
APTRA has confirmed that the event will be priced at US$600, maintaining the same delegate rate as in 2024, in line with its non-profit status.
As with the 2024 conference, any surplus funds will be reinvested in APTRA’s initiatives to support members across Asia Pacific.
