PORTUGAL. Leading travel retailer and food & beverage company Areas has opened the second ‘Portfolio – Made of Portugal’ store at Faro Airport in 200sq m of space. It is the brand’s fifth outlet at airports in Portugal. The others are at Lisbon, Funchal and Porto airports.
Portfolio, owned by ANA Aeroportos de Portugal, is a Sense of Place concept managed by Areas that offers an array of Portuguese brands across five worlds: culture, crafts, design, fashion and flavours.
Portfolio Faro features goods that are characteristic of the Algarve region including cork, ceramics, azulejo tiles and sweet almonds, alongside a wider Portuguese wine selection.
Areas said: “This opening is the result of a project aimed at expanding and renewing the Portfolio brand, which is focused on reinforcing its hallmark message in 2022 – ‘Portfolio, the place where Portugal meets the world’, while also overhauling, digitalising and improving the sustainability of its spaces and products.”
*Areas has been named as a Platinum Partner for the Airport Food & Beverage Conference & Awards 2022, which will take place virtually on 12 and 13 September (before making a full in-person return in mid-2023). Click here for registration details.
