Qatar Duty Free takes home three international awards

Qatar Duty Free received three awards at the 2015 Duty Free News International Global Awards in London, including winning Global Travel Retailer of the Year -- the most sought-after prize at the annual ceremony.

Qatar Duty Free also won Airport Travel Retailer of the Year and Best New Shop Opening for its Marmalade Market concept at Hamad International Airport.

“Qatar Duty Free is delighted to have been recognized by Duty Free News International at its annual global awards ceremony,” Qatar Duty Free Senior Vice President Keith Hunter said. “We are honored to be chosen by this leading publication as both the Global Travel Retailer of the Year and the Airport Travel Retailer of the Year, and to receive the award for Best New Shop Opening.

This is the third consecutive year that Qatar Duty Free, in business since 2001, has been awarded the prize for Global Travel Retailer of the Year, beating competition from other global travel retailers.

¨These awards come at the end of a busy and exciting year for Qatar Duty Free, which moved to Hamad International Airport in April last year, and it is very satisfying to know that the hard work of our team has been acknowledged within the industry,” Hunter said.
