DutyFreeZone.com, which has been supplying products to vendors in the tax-free travel retail sector since 1998, has launched an online marketplace open to both individual consumers as well as wholesalers and distributors. Duty-free products from global brands in categories including alcoholic beverages, fragrances, confectionery, beauty, electronics, fashion and jewelry — everything traditionally found in duty-free shops — will be available online.
“Duty Free Zone is securing an additional discount from the manufacturer to offset the value of the duties,” explained Reynald Vito Grattagliano, Founder of DutyFreeZone.com, in an email sent to Retail TouchPoints. “This ensures that the end user receives a true duty-free price.”
The new marketplace also will provide a venue for brands seeking to showcase their products in a global, curated duty-free environment. “We’re transforming the way duty-free works,” said Grattagliano in a statement. “For decades, access to duty-free products was limited to airports and cruise terminals. Now, with our marketplace, anyone — from Dubai to Paris to Los Angeles — can shop duty-free or become a global seller.”
Operating from strategic duty-free zones across Latin America and North America, DutyFreeZone.com has extensive experience in logistics, customs clearance and international trade compliance as well as longstanding relationships with major suppliers.
