INTERNATIONAL. Welcome to this May edition of The Moodie Davitt Magazine, timed to coincide with TFWA Asia Pacific in Singapore. Our digital edition is mailed to our worldwide audience with hard copies available at the show (10-14 May).
In the pages of our main edition we home in on the reshaping of the South Korean duty-free market – historically the world’s biggest – against a backdrop of softer discretionary spending patterns, much-reduced reliance on the diagou sector, and changing post-pandemic shopping behaviour.
We carry a series of on location reports from India, an aviation and travel retail market in rapid and exciting transformation, underpinned by surging investment and long-term global ambitions.
Our China coverage features highlights of a landmark China Duty Free Group Global Partners Meeting held in Shanghai in late March; we report on a memorable China International Consumer Products Expo in Haikou; and we salute a transformative 15 years – and US$42 billion of sales – in Hainan’s offshore duty-free sector.
There is much more besides in this edition and in our accompanying supplements.
In line with our deep commitment to the promotion of ‘China Chic’ products in travel retail at home and abroad, we are proud to publish a pioneering title dedicated to high-quality Chinese brands.
Plus we bring you our annual Category Insight report on spirits & wine, with a focus on Unifree Duty Free’s Istanbul Airport business as our cover story.
Last week we also published a special Spotlight eZine to celebrate Japanese beauty powerhouse KOSÉ Group’s milestone 80th anniversary; hard copies are also available at TFWA Asia Pacific as part of our extensive portfolio of titles.
Please enjoy our unrivalled market coverage in our main edition and in the accompanying three supplements. ✈
