Furla’s Candy bag is proving star of
the show at the brand’s corner in Cairn’s Airport. Furla opened
the corner within the James Richardson operated Duty Free Store in
June of this year and says the fun, colourful and unique rubber Candy
bags are a clear top seller.
‘Overall sales are meeting our
expectations at the store and we’re delighted that Candy is proving
so popular,’ says Furla head of travel retail Gerry Munday. ‘We’re
really developing the Candy line for our Spring Summer 2013
collection with exciting new colours and material combinations , so
this success is a great boost for us especially given the passenger
profile at the airport.’
The first duty free shop operated at an
airport in Australia by James Richardson Pty, the Cairns outlet is
seeing a profile mix of predominantly Chinese customers (35%),
followed by Japanese (30%), Korean (20%) and Caucasian (15%).
‘We’re delighted with the way the
corner looks and the support that James Richardson has given us in
Cairns,’ continues Munday. ‘Plus the future is looking even
better with increased aircraft frequency into the airport, the
forecast for growth is excellent.’
The latest Candy collection can be seen
at TFWA World Exhibition this month on the Furla stand.
