LS travel retail Director of Luxury Fashion Philippe Fontalba said: “Our partnership with Salvatore Ferragamo started way back as being one of the first companies to operate the brand in Paris. We are so happy today to have the opportunity to open a new store in Singapore Terminal 1 which reinforces our global partnership and our recent development in Asia Pacific where we have already some Salvatore Ferragamo stores in Sydney, Singapore Terminal 2, Xi’an and more recently in Shenzhen Airport.”

Travellers will soon be able to indulge with more variety of luxury fashion brands that we will be offering within Changi Airport as well as the recent launch of 13 luxury brand stores in Shenzhen Airport, China.”
