New Specialized Stores in Athens International Airport

Hellenic Duty Free, the operator of Dufry’s stores in Greece, has completed the opening of three specialized store concepts that come to complement the already comprehensive offering of our Athens International Airport operation.

The Naxos Apothecary

The Naxos Apothecary is all about Naxos-island-heritage, precious Greek herbs and statement design – the brainchild of pharmacist Giorgos Korres and a tribute to his beloved homeland. Naxos becomes a point of reference as various elements of the enchanting product collection ‘narrate’ the culture and history of the Cycladic island, while organic herbs growing in its soil are used to develop the tailor-made face creams.

A set of ten fragrances inspired and named after some of its most breathtaking villages and seashores takes center-stage, along with iconic bar soaps, shower gels and precious candles. But that’s not all there is; if a decorative object – all designed by young, talented designers – catches your eye, you can purchase that as well; from a brown glass vase reminiscent of old-school pharmacies to an imaginative ceramic. All infused with the authenticity and poetry of a Greek island of the Aegean Sea.

Fournos Theifilos

An arc of Greek Food Culture & Tales. When the team first thought of setting up Fournos Theofilos, the last thing they had in mind was a physical store. Their idea of Fournos felt more like an “Arc”, a space where to collect, value, showcase and offer the most precious culinary treasures produced in Greece, of the best possible quality.

Unique honeys, the purest of the pure virgin olive oils, baklavas, walnut pies, Smyrna cookies kneaded by proud artisan fists, fine nuts, and all those other products that constitute the pieces forming the mosaic of the Greek culinary tradition. As a tribute to the great folk artist who lent his name to that vision, the store is decorated with his art, enhanced by visual elements from our collaboration with the Benaki Museum.

Mastiha Shop

The long and creative collaboration between Mediterra and Hellenic Duty Free Stores has given birth to a new “mastihashop”. Seventeen years after the establishment of the first mastihashop at Athens Airport, it was time to create the second mastihashop, this time in Extra Schengen at the departures level.

The design of this new store follows the line, the style, the philosophy as well as the uniqueness of the brand, highlighting the products and the options available.

The numerous Greek and foreign friends of mastihashop now have the opportunity to acquire mastiha products of all categories. From natural mastiha, to cosmetics and sunscreens as well as traditional products such as Turkish delights, spoon sweets and cookies. The offer also includes food such as pasta, olive oil, sauces, and beverages such as coffee, tea, chocolate and liqueur and is further complemented by more exclusive products such as dietary supplements, toothpaste,mouthwash and soaps. Customers can enjoy these products when departing from area A or area B of the International Airport of Eleftherios Venizelos.
