USA. Nuance North America has been named Best Canadian Airport Duty Free Company by the Frontier Duty Free Association (FDFA) for the third consecutive year.
The FDFA’s Gold Standard awards, held during the annual FDFA Convention on 19 November, recognise companies voted as the best retailers and suppliers in the Canadian duty free market.
The awards are decided by a panel of FDFA brand members, who sell into Canadian duty free stores.
Nuance North America Vice President Buying and Merchandising Andrew Rattner said: “Winning this prestigious award for the third time is a great honour for us. I would like to take this opportunity to thank The Canadian Airport Council for their sponsorship of this award. I would also like to thank everyone at Nuance who have contributed to our success.
“We are very proud of our stores and service here in Canada, especially our recent state-of-the-art developments in Toronto Pearson. We are committed to continue providing our customers with exciting retail environments and outstanding customer service.”
Nuance’s North America business stretches across eight airports in the US and Canada including Calgary, Toronto, Chicago, Denver, Fort Lauderdale, Houston, Las Vegas and Orlando.
