LONDON, Jan. 5, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Overview of the duty-free retailing market
Technavios research analyst predicts the global duty-free retailing market to grow steadily at a CAGR of around 9% during the forecast period. The increase in international travelers is the primary driver for the growth of this market. The number of foreign travelers during 2014 was around 1 billion, with Europe emerging as the most popular destination.
