GERMANY. Lagardère Travel Retail, in partnership with Schäfer Electronics, has opened two further Tech2go stores at Düsseldorf Airport.
The 50sq m airside and 60sq m landside stores join two other Tech2go shops, featuring tech accessories and gadgets, which opened at the German airport in May. As reported, Lagardère Travel Retail won a tender to operate four consumer technology stores at the airport earlier this year.
The Tech2go stores offer a wide range of products including headphones, soundbars, travel adapters, charging cables, power banks and computer accessories such as mice, keyboards and notebook cases. Electronic beauty products are also featured.
Lagardère Travel Retail Germany CEO Jochen Halfmann said: “We are pleased to have a strong partner at our side in Düsseldorf Airport, with whom we were able to set up four stores within just a few months.
“With a wide range of electronic devices and accessories, travellers have the opportunity to buy important equipment for their trip before departure or simply to discover new products.”
Düsseldorf Airport Management Board Chairman Thomas Schnalke added: “We were already convinced of the idea and the corporate concept when the first two Tech2go stores opened at Düsseldorf Airport. Together with our partner Lagardère Travel Retail, innovation and comfort for our travellers are top priorities and with Tech2go this is once again made possible.”
Lagardère Travel Retail operates seven Tech2go stores in Germany, five of which opened this year. Along with the four at Düsseldorf, the retailer offers two at Hamburg and one at Berlin Brandenburg airports.
