Nuance Group awarded Swedavia concession extension through 2018
Swedavia stated (09-Jul-2012) it is extending and expanding its collaboration with The Nuance Group, which operates shops at most of Swedavia's airports, through 2018. As part of this effort, a new tax-free concept is being implemented, with 10 tax-free and other shops to be upgraded over the next 12 months. "The investment in shops is part of creating inspiring airports with a commercial offering designed for our passengers. The shopping experience at our airports is being enhanced, a project that involves 3000 square metres of shopping space. To start, we are launching a brand-new walk-through tax-free shop in the international terminal at Göteborg Landvetter Airport. Major improvements are also being planned at Stockholm Arlanda Airport in Terminals 2, 4 and 5," said Swedavia chief commercial and marketing officer Michael Persson Gripkow. The extended agreement means The Nuance Group will operate and develop shops at the following Swedavia airports: Stockholm Arlanda Airport, Göteborg Landvetter Airport, Malmö Airport, Bromma Stockholm Airport, Visby Airport, Umeå Airport, Luleå Airport, and Åre Östersund Airport.
