Retail operation expands at MIA

As from December 2008 The NUANCE Group (Malta ) Ltd will be increasing its presence at MIA with a new retail area of around 670 sq.mt.
This expansion falls in line with MIA’s extention plans that are taking place to include also additional security lanes and a larger and more modern executive lounge owing to the projected increase in traffic.
This novel retail concept for the airport will provide the passenger with an enhanced travel and shopping experience whereby a variety of products ranging from a now combined perfume, skin care and cosmetic section, to confectionery, tobacco, liquor and international wines as well as toy sections, will be available in virtually a shopping mall walk-through.
The new establishment is situated in the Schengen departures area. Since the commencement of their activity in Malta, NUANCE has developed a very strong retail operation and has manifested their professional know-how and expertise in sales techniques in the airport retail field at the service of travellers, also contributing significantly to MIA’s results which indeed confirms the successful partnership that has evolved.
In fact this new concept store at the airport is the result of the successful conclusion of an agreement which was signed recently between MIA and the NUANCE Group whereby NUANCE are guaranteeing a minimum of 25.5 million Euros revenue to MIA up to the end of 2014 on maturity of the contract.
