FRANCE. Toulouse-Blagnac International Airport is seeking submissions of interest from potential partners for its core retail business, including duty free, via The Moodie Davitt Report.
The winning candidate will establish and run 2,000sq m of shopping space at France’s fifth biggest airport. Toulouse-Blagnac handled 8 million passengers in 2016.
Dufry is the incumbent duty free concessionaire while Lagardère Travel Retail also has a strong retail presence at the airport.
The new contract will begin in April 2018. The contract length is not yet finalised, with several options under review.
The deadline for Expressions of Interest is 8 February. Details of the opportunity will be advertised in this week’s edition of The Moodie Davitt e-Zine, out later today, and via our home page.

The airport company last year appointed The Design Solution to lead commercial planning for a reconfiguration of space at its terminal.
