INTERNATIONAL. Welcome to the latest issue of The Moodie Davitt e-Zine, which this week puts the spotlight on Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport and its dedication to the concept of Sense of Place.
From spectacular views to retail and F&B outlets to artworks and exhibitions, the airport aims to offer travellers a taste of Arizona’s culture, traditions and heritage.
We also assess a possible nightmare scenario for Korean market leader Lotte Duty Free in our regular column The Muse. The retailer suffered a harmful cyber attack today, apparently the victim of a Chinese backlash against Lotte Group’s involvement in the Korean deployment of US anti-missile system THAAD. We examine the fallout.
In our main feature, Dubai Duty Free Executive Vice Chairman and CEO Colm McLoughlin explains why 2017 is expected to be a good year for the retailer, after a turbulent period.
Guerlain this week launched its much-anticipated new feminine fragrance Mon Guerlain, with actress and film director Angelina Jolie as the face. The Moodie Davitt Report was the exclusive travel retail media at the top secret pre-launch event held at Guerlain’s Orphin factory in France in January, where the brand outlined its ambitious expansion plans. We bring you a report on this landmark project for the brand.
Please enjoy this edition of The Moodie Davitt e-Zine with our compliments.
