It also underscores the brand’s confidence and recognition of our commitment and dedication to growing its business while enhancing our portfolio of assortments available at HKIA.

Samsonite Red is targeted at both males and females aged from their mid-20s to mid-30s. The brand is designed to be stylish and practical, with a focus on high quality fabric and materials.
Nuance-Watson (HK) has worked closely with Samsonite, which celebrates its 100th anniversary this year, to fully maximise the impact of two major launches in HKIA in 2010: the Samsonite Cosmolite collection in March and the Samsonite Business collections in October.
The campaigns were supported by Samsonite’s extensive advertising placement at the airport and its related environment including the Airport Express Line (AEL) HK station, AEL platform screen door stickers, 12-sheet light box, AEL airport departure concourse banners – all of which are well connected to the prime promotion spaces at Nuance-Watson’s stores.
