Beaute Luxe and Beauty Concepts claim Goa International Airport duty-free store tender
Goa International Airport will welcome two new duty-free stores, operated by Beaute Luxe and Beauty Concepts, in June
Beauty Concepts, in association with Beaute Luxe, has expanded its operations with the opening of two multi category duty-free shops at India's Goa International Airport.
Beauty Concepts is one of India’s largest distributors, distributing over 100 brands in various markets. With a rich and diverse portfolio, it is present in retail outlets as well as on major online platforms, operating over 60 stores in selected shopping centers and airports.
“The undisputed leader in travel retail distribution in Africa”, Beaute Luxe has a presence in over 34 countries. With four subsidiaries based on the African continent, Beauty Luxe distributes international luxury brands in over 200 duty-free stores.
The group said it is stepping up its international development strategy by establishing itself at Goa International Airport with two key duty-free locations: one in the departures area and the other in the arrivals area.
According to Beaute Luxe, these new points of sale mark an important step in the group’s strategic development in the travel retail segment, offering a multi-segment selection including spirits, tobacco and fragrances to meet the needs of a wide range of international travelers. For the first time, the group’s offering goes beyond selective perfumery to include a multi-segment selection. This strategic diversification opens up new horizons for development.

Our deep market knowledge, operational excellence and commitment to delivering premium experiences have been instrumental in realizing this vision at Goa International Airport.

Designed as elegant and immersive spaces, these two new stores (scheduled to open in June 2025) will offer a specialized selection of international brands in the fragrance, spirits and tobacco categories, in a refined and contemporary environment.
With this strategic entry into the duty-free sector, the group confirms its ambition to become an international, multi-segment and innovative player in travel retail.
