Contract Extension in Cambodia
Dufry has successfully extended for five and a half years its duty-free concession at Cambodia’s three international airports in Phnom Penh, Siem Reap and Sihanoukville, which in 2019 welcomed 11.6 million international travelers.
The extended concession contract started in October 2021 and covers departure and arrival duty-free shops at the Phnom Penh and Siem Reap hubs, as well as the departure shop at Sihanoukville airport with a total sales area of 2,680 m2, which Dufry has operated since 2003.
As part of the agreement, Dufry will refurbish the duty-free shops at Phnom Penh and Siem Reap, following the redesign of the Sihanoukville outlet in 2019.
Through the refurbishment of the shops, Dufry will provide travelers with a new and attractive shopping experience, thus further increasing productivity of these important Cambodian hubs, which enjoy increasing attention from international passengers.
The airports are operated by the Vinci Airports subsidiary Cambodia Airports and the company has put a strong focus on sense of place in its offer. In line with this, Dufry will feature an assortment of Cambodian products and souvenirs, alongside the traditional duty-free offer.
