Modern Allure: Godiva’s shop-in-shop in Dallas Fort Worth Terminal D opened in summer with Buckaroo Duty Free


US. Godiva Chocolatier has expanded its presence at Dallas Fort Worth Airport, Texas, with a new shop-in-shop in Terminal D with operator DFASS’s Buckaroo Duty Free. Godiva is the only confectionery brand to have been granted a personalised space in this location.

The shop-in-shop, which features 6ft of wall space and a mid-floor tower unit, opened in late summer and follows Godiva’s Modern Allure theme, which can be seen in airports globally.

“We have a strong relationship with DFASS and look forward to further future opportunities to work in partnership with them,” said Godiva International Travel Retail Regional Manager Americas & Caribbean Diane Buchanan. “They have been extremely helpful in getting this fixture installed and merchandised.”

To support the shop-in-shop, November 2008 will see Godiva running a sampling event for its Connoisseur collection, offering a tote bag as a gwp.

This year, Godiva has opened Modern Allure shop-in-shop and boutiques in Singapore, Hong Kong and Guam.

Said Buchanan: “Godiva has a unique brand proposition with a breadth and depth of offer that no one can match, as well as being the only truly premium brand with a global consumer franchise.

“Our goal is to deliver the complete Godiva brand experience wherever possible in travel retail in order to set us apart from all the other boxed chocolate offers in the market, and our shop-in-shops, stand-alone boutiques and branded corners are a vital element within that strategy.

“The boutiques and shop-in-shop executions allow us to offer a unique confectionery-based consumer experience in travel retail with lots of theatre that will provide some real excitement to shopping experience.”
