What we bring

Beauty & Fashion

Selected beauty and fashion brands, ready for the shelves and lounges where luxury travellers stop.

Why beauty and fashion belong in travel retail

Beauty and fashion are the heart of duty-free: the categories travellers plan to buy before they even reach the airport. Iconic brands, exclusive sets and travel sizes turn waiting time into shopping time.

AKA connects brands with the operators, hotels and inflight programmes that shape this market, and helps them stand out on a crowded shelf.

In travel retail, a brand is discovered by the whole world in a single corridor.
