Dubai Duty Free eyes potential partnerships at Dubai International Airport

By Wendy Morley


As part of Dubai Duty Free’s commitment to continually enhance the shopping experience for all passengers who travel through Dubai International (DXB) and Dubai World Central (DWC) airports, DDF is looking to explore opportunities for strategic partnerships to drive the next phase of growth.

Dubai Duty Free (DDF) and Dubai Airports have seen record growth over the last few years and this announcement comes at a pivotal time, in view of the development of the new Al Maktoum International Airport.

The company is keen to explore ways in which DDF, their staff and ultimately their customers can all benefit from a collaboration with business partners which could potentially bring greater scale and an infrastructure platform to support the record growth trajectory seen across Dubai’s aviation sector.

Ramesh Cidambi, DDF Managing Director, said the announcement is “a great opportunity for the business given the rapid growth in passenger numbers at DXB and the expected increase in the coming years, as we prepare to move to AMIA.

“By exploring potential business partners to work with Dubai Duty Free, we aim to offer customers an even greater shopping experience, with more exclusive brands and promotions whilst also ensuring that customers are able to experience the latest retail technology and innovation.”
