Global market review of the travel retail drinks sector published by just-drinks.com in August, 2010. This report consists of 87Pages and the price starts from US $ 1190.

Introduction

Abstract

Travel retail, viewed as an individual market, would rank as the 18th largest spirits market in volume terms. This makes it larger than such substantial markets as Canada, Italy, South Africa, the Netherlands or Australia. In terms of premium-and-above sales, travel retail would rank as the second-largest global market (falling only behind the US) with sales of 6.7m cases.

Travel retail' s importance extends beyond just sales. As the most international market it presents an optimum shop window for brand building. Airport travel retail' s upscale clientele makes it a particularly hospitable environment for premium and luxury brands. For this reason suppliers are willing to accept considerably lower profit margins in travel retail than they do in domestic markets.
