Welcome to The Moodie Davitt eZine, Travel Retail’s LookBook. In this edition, published on the eve of Chinese New Year, we cast an eye on some of the big campaigns and launches that coincide with this auspicious period in the calendar, and assess the prospects for the travel market within China today.
We also look at recent data and commentary underpinning the view that a wider recovery in global travel and tourism is on the way in 2022.
In another highlight of this issue, we feature excerpts from a compelling White Paper that addresses the way forward for travel retail, produced by Bain & Company in association with Castlepole Retail and The Moodie Davitt Report.
The analysis highlights a shift in the travel market to younger, less affluent consumers combined with an urgent need to embrace digital retailing. And it notes a number of key points of action that the industry can take to safeguard and sustain its future.
In addition, we interview senior executives at Avinor about the recently released tenders across retail and dining at four major airports in Norway, with five-year contracts valued at around €830 million in sales on offer to bidders.
Plus you’ll find our regular columns Positive Disruptors (in partnership with Tito’s), Better Moments Make The World Smile (with Mars-Wrigley International Travel Retail) and The Customer Experience Column (with CircleSquare).
Please enjoy this edition with our compliments.
