Ospree Duty Free and VFS Global join forces to link visa services with airport retail rewards

The collaboration links two key travel touchpoints – visa services and airport retail – allowing Ospree Duty Free to engage travellers well before they reach the terminal

INDIA. Ospree Duty Free has partnered with visa specialist company VFS Global to offer exclusive shopping benefits to Indian travellers applying for UK visas.

The partnership enables eligible applicants at participating VFS Global UK visa application centres across India to receive unique voucher codes. It launched on 29 June.

Travellers can enjoy a -10% discount in Ospree Duty Free stores at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport in Mumbai and Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad, subject to applicable terms and exclusions.

The voucher programme links the visa application process with retail rewards. It offers a seamless redemption process that showcases Ospree Duty Free’s diverse portfolio across beauty, spirits & wine, confectionery, lifestyle, electronics and gifting.

The initiative highlights the growing role of partnerships between travel service providers and travel retailers in delivering more connected passenger experiences

Commenting on the partnership, an Ospree Duty Free Spokesperson said: “At Ospree Duty Free, we are constantly looking for ways to elevate the travel retail experience by creating meaningful value for our customers at every stage of their journey.

“Our partnership with VFS Global reflects this commitment by bringing together two important touchpoints in the travel ecosystem to offer greater convenience and exclusive benefits.

“As travel continues to evolve, we remain focused on delivering innovative, customer-centric experiences that extend beyond the airport.”

The collaboration forms part of Ospree Duty Free’s wider strategy to expand the duty-free proposition beyond traditional airport retail. It also creates additional value throughout the passenger journey by integrating travel services with retail rewards.
