THE SHILLA DUTY FREE LAUNCHES AT HONG KONG INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT
If you have a stop at Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA), have a look at the new Shilla Duty Free. Six retail outlets opened for business on Tuesday 12 December 2017, as a result of the positive collaboration between Shilla’s Hong Kong team and the Airport Authority Hong Kong, supported by Shilla’s Head Office in Korea.
The new license marks Shilla as the first operator to simultaneously secure duty free perfumes and
cosmetics concessions across the major hub airports of Incheon International, Hong Kong International
and Singapore Changi. With the opening of the HKIA stores, Shilla is also pleased to announce their new
vision for experiential retail - Beauty&You.
Spanning around 3300m2 of operational area, the six retail stores, situated in the restricted area of
HKIA’s Terminal 1, currently offer a wide spectrum of beauty and skincare products, and fashion
accessories including sunglasses, watches, small leather goods and handbags. In celebration of the soft
opening, a number of brands will also be launching at HKIA for the first time, including The History of
Whoo, Alexander McQueen and Didier Dubot.
Beauty&You presents a new retail concept for HKIA, combining innovative store designs with a wide array of products, excellent service and exciting activities to delight guests at every stage of their shopping journey, giving a new innovative approach to travel retail in an airport.
With the Grand Opening slated for the summer of 2018 when the new retail spaces are unveiled, the number of brands featured across the six stores will increase to over 200.
Beauty&You will offer travellers and shoppers the ultimate retail destination offering skincare, beauty, fashion and accessories in an immersive retail environment. Representing how modern, travel-savvy customers shop, the new store layout will incorporate both branded counters and non-branded areas, as well as immersive engagement zones such as Elements - an area dedicated to male-specific products, and New Generation - a section showcasing the best of Korean and Japanese brands.
In addition, there will be Curated Zones where featured themes and trendy looks merge into one showcase with perfume, cosmetics and fashion products on display. The new design will also be integrated with digital technology – from augmented reality to test out looks and colours, to touch screens and interactive panels – to elevate the overall shopping experience.
“We’re extremely excited to expand The Shilla Duty Free network to one of the busiest airports in the world,” says Alice Woo, Managing Director of Shilla Travel Retail Hong Kong Limited, “The airport served more than 70 million passengers annually and 1,100 aircrafts daily in the past 12 months. Hong Kong’s proximity to other Asian countries and mainland China also makes HKIA a powerful and promising hub for duty free sales. With the upcoming launch of Beauty&You, we hope to redefine the airport retail experience and customer journey through personalised service, interactive and engaging environment in one of the most robust travel markets in the world.”
To complement the physical shopping experience, The Shilla Duty Free has also collaborated with HKIA to lunch products online. Travellers will now be able to select from a wide collection of products from the Beauty&You catalogue via HKairport Shop. Available 24/7, purchases made through the online platform will be ready in as early as three hours after the order has been made, allowing shoppers the convenience of collecting their purchase before or after their flight.
