Royal Dragon Vodka launches in Duty Zero by CDF stores at Hong Kong Airport

Royal Dragon Vodka is now available at Duty Zero by CDF* stores in Hong Kong International Airport after securing listings for its Imperial Collection and miniature-sized Elite Flavoured Collection.

To celebrate the listing, Royal Dragon Vodka will launch a limited number of the Imperial Magnum 1.5-litre next month, a product currently offered exclusively in duty free at Hong Kong International Airport.

Royal Dragon Vodka has secured several listings in Asia recently including in Thailand, with King Power International, and Taiwan with Ever Rich Duty Free

Lagardère Travel Retail Head of Liquor Category Management Scott Hamilton said: “We are very excited about introducing Royal Dragon Vodka to Hong Kong International Airport’s Duty Zero by CDF. We are striving to offer our customers a wider range of giftable white spirits and unique luxury items in the international liquor category.

“We are looking at a successful and fruitful partnership with the team behind Royal Dragon Vodka as early sales results are very encouraging for the business.”

Singapore-based Yam Seng Pte Ltd, a company owned by the Tuli family, is the appointed agent for the vodka brand in selected duty free markets globally.

Yam Seng Sales and Marketing Director Jesreen Sidhu commented: “We are particularly excited about this listing as Hong Kong International Airport is a priority location for us. It boasts a diverse passenger profile, including a high proportion of luxury shoppers. Royal Dragon Vodka is being remarkably well-received in Asia and we believe the ultra-premium product range will be exactly the right fit for global travellers passing through Hong Kong International Airport.”

*Duty Zero by CDF, the joint venture by China Duty Free Group and Lagardère Travel Retail, began trading on 18 November.
