INTERNATIONAL. Welcome to The Moodie Report e-Zine. In this issue we visit Hawaii, where DFS Group hosted a stunning launch and gala event for its new global downtown store brand, T Galleria by DFS. Martin Moodie speaks to DFS’s senior leadership about the reasoning behind the new identity.
We also visit Rome as LS travel retail reveals the results of its big renovation and expansion at Rome Fiumicino Airport, one year after acquiring the business. Plus we look into a new initiative to help small local producers at AB Won Pat International Airport in Guam, and we hail the launch of an interesting travel retail range from the Islay distillery of Bruichladdich.
We return to Dubai with Travel Retail’s Wild Geese this week, where we meet Dubai Airports Senior Vice President Commercial Unit Eugene Barry, a native of Cork who left Ireland for Bahrain in 1996. And we stay in the Gulf States for our new review of industry mobile apps, The Moodie APPraisal, where we evaluate offerings from Doha and Dubai airports.
And we close on The Front Line, in association with Aer Rianta International. This week we introduce Michelle Lei, a senior sales representative from Dufry’s operation in Chengdu, China, who wows colleagues and customers with her energetic commitment to customer care.
We hope you enjoy this issue and look forward to your feedback.
