Qatar Duty Free (QDF) has announced the opening of four new exclusive retail outlets at Hamad International Airport (HIA).
Bazaar, Blush, Paris Saint Germain (PSG) and beIN Sports are the latest additions to QDF’s premium portfolio of brands located within the airport’s 25,000sq m duty-free shopping area, which incorporates more than 70 retail outlets, according to a statement.
“We are delighted to announce the opening of these four important stores that will add a dynamic new flavour to the vibrant retail mix at Qatar Duty Free in Hamad International Airport,” said senior vice-president of QDF, Keith Hunter.
“Both Bazaar and Blush are homegrown brands that we are very proud to have conceptualised and developed especially for this market, and we believe they will be a major attraction for passengers looking for unique gifts and products at affordable prices.”
The concept of Bazaar is based on the style of a traditional souq where guests can buy last-minute Middle Eastern and Qatari souvenirs and gifts before they leave Doha. The wide range of gift items includes colourful pashminas, jewellery, soft toys and Qatari-themed souvenirs such as mugs, pens and keyrings.
Blush is QDF’s own beauty emporium, which rivals any high-street multi-brand beauty store for the breadth and diversity of its products, all available at duty-free prices, the statement adds. The large selection of popular brands at Blush includes L’Oréal, Bourjois, Toni & Guy, Rimmel, OPI and Lanocreme.
Paris Saint Germain fans passing through HIA are also in for a treat now as the new PSG store stocks a wide range of club-branded merchandise and products.
In addition, Qatar’s own beIN Sports TV channel now has a dedicated boutique at HIA stocking branded sports apparel, accessories and gifts from the Qatari homegrown sports network.
At HIA, Qatar Duty Free offers 40,000sq m of combined retail, food and beverage facilities, establishing the retailer as a premier shopping and dining destination, the statement adds. With more than 70 retail outlets offering a wide range of designer labels, fashion, electronics, gourmet foods and more, QDF at HIA caters to all passengers’ tastes. In addition, more than 30 cafés and restaurants offer a selection of global and local cuisine.
Other luxury brands available at HIA include Bulgari, Hermès, Giorgio Armani, Hugo Boss, Mont Blanc, Rolex and Chanel.
The new PSG store stocks a wide range of club branded merchandise and products.
