Travel retail watch and jewellery specialist Kurate International is set to showcase its latest jewellery and watch collections from its Belle & Beau and Moon brands at the TFWA World Exhibition in Cannes (Green Village, K56).
A key player in travel retail for over a decade, Kurate has expanded its brand portfolio, including the popular Moon, Belle & Beau and You brands. The ranges offer a selection of high-quality gold, sterling silver and fashion jewellery at value-for-money prices.
Among the new products to be featured at the Cannes show is an updated range of Moon watches for women, retailing at under £20 (US$26). The showcase also includes the latest jewellery collections from Belle & Beau, including the Corda, Aurora, Twist, Bamboo and Tuscan.
The main highlight will be the Belle & Beau waterproof range, a popular market trend.
Designed for everyday wear, this collection includes necklaces, earrings, bangles, anklets and gift sets, all made of stainless steel to ensure they won’t tarnish, discolour or fade.
Kurate International Key Account Manager Sharon Edwards-Smith said: “You can wear it in the gym, in the shower, in the sea, on the beach – anywhere. It’s stylish and on-trend, with a range of designs to suit all tastes. With very reasonable pricing, it’s an absolute no-brainer for travel retail.”
The waterproof offer will kick off with a collection geared towards inflight sales, with a ground store and cruise ship/ferry selection to follow.
Edwards-Smith added: “We’re really excited about this new collection and hope our existing retail partners – and potential new customers – will come along to the stand to see it.”
Kurate International’s return to the TFWA World Exhibition comes hot on the heels of successful openings last year, including in Edinburgh.
Belle & Beau was also launched at Marrakesh and Sofia airports in partnership with Avolta, while You opened at NCL Cruises, Cancún and Los Cabos international airports in Mexico.
Kurate also partnered with Aer Rianta International to secure further listings at Larnaca and Paphos international airports in Cyprus earlier this year, and another store at Faro Airport is scheduled to launch later this year.
Edwards-Smith said: “Kurate’s jewellery and watch ranges continue to offer travellers exceptional value and quality – whether they are purchased as a self-treat or for gifting – our aim is to stay ahead of the curve with collections that are relevant, on-trend and easy-to-purchase.” ✈
