World’s smallest bordershop triples in size

A little over a year ago, R&F Travel Retail opened what was then probably the world’s smallest duty free shop, in Holyhead. Now, that shop is growing and adding two more shipping containers to the existing shop area.

On Saturday, June 30th, R&F Travel Retail opened the doors to 85 square meters of duty free shop at the port of Holyhead. The essence of the shop remains the same: focus is on the customers and ease of buying. However, shoppers can look forward to browsing a bigger assortment with a larger selection from different travel retail brands and of course, more great offers. In middle of July, R&F Travel Retail opened a new duty free shop at the Harwich International Port.

“I am really happy that we are growing our retail family, not only in number of shops but also when it comes to shop sizes. We have seen a surging demand for duty-free products among travelers, and we are of course proud that we are now able to offer our customers even more great duty free deals”, says Tony Michaelsen, Head of Business Development at R&F Travel Retail.
