William Grant & Sons’ Regional Managing Director – GTR, Rufus Parkinson, feels that the data gathered on consumer behavior from the APAC pop-ups reveals that William Grant & Sons’ portfolio is equipped to cater to the needs and wants of traveling customers.
“The spirits category in travel retail is changing with customers increasingly on the lookout for something different, something outstanding from their trusted brands. Our portfolio for this year’s TFWA World Exhibition includes channel-exclusive, limited edition and brand-new expressions that will appeal to a wide range of customers looking for new tastes and exclusive propositions,” said Parkinson.
“Our brands ensure that we remain at the forefront of the Spirits Category, offering not only the right products but also the complete support of our retailing partners. We are confident that this year’s show is going to be a great success and we are looking forward to discussing our brands and our plans in the channel with travel retail stakeholders. At the same time, we hope they will also join us to sample our category-leading brands especially at cocktail hour!”
