Dufry plans renovations, store openings across three airports in Egypt
 |
| In addition to renovations at Sharm el Sheikh, Dufry will be opening new departures and arrivals stores at Borg el Arab and Assiut airports |
In a recent interview with Gulf-Africa Duty Free, Miguel Angel Martinez, Dufry Africa’s COO, confirmed that a number of projects—including renovations and store openings in Egypt—are in the works for the second half of 2010.
Dufry currently operates five stores in Sharm el Sheikh International Airport, four in the departure area of Terminal 2 and one in the arrivals area of the same terminal. One of the departure stores is currently undergoing renovations to accommodate a new shop-in-shop.
“We will soon be opening a new fashion concept shop called ‘Blanc du Nil,’” says Martinez. “We are now in the process of renovating a part of our departure store in Sharm el Sheikh International Airport to provide the new design for the Blanc du Nil section, which will measure a total of 40-square-meters.”
As the name suggests, Blanc du Nil’s fashions are predominantly white in color. The clothes are reasonably priced and also made from Egyptian cotton. In addition to the renovations at Sharm el Sheikh, Dufry will be opening four new stores in Egypt before the end of the year.
The company will open two stores at Borg el Arab International Airport, one in the departures area and one in arrivals. Furthermore, Dufry will open two stores (again, one in departures and one in arrivals) in the international hall at Assiut Airport.
All four projects are expected to be completed before the end of the year. Martinez asserts that the retail space of the four new stores combined will measure 958-square-meters.

Cairo Airport shuttle damaged in storm to be replaced by French manufacturer
Cairo Airport Company Chairman Hassan Rashed has decided to send the electric shuttle train intended to link Cairo International Airport’s three main terminals back to France--where it was manufactured--to be replaced with a new one.
The decision came after the original shuttle was severely damaged by recent storms near Alexandria as it was being transported to Egypt by sea.
Rashed told Al-Masry Al-Youm that he had informed the French manufacturers of the shuttle of his decision, saying that, even if sea water had not leaked into the shuttle’s working parts, the vibrations that occurred as a result of the storm may have damaged it.
He went on to note that the relevant insurance company would be responsible for the transportation costs incurred by the shuttle's return to France. He stressed that, despite the setback, the shuttle service would commence operations in July as originally planned.
According to Rashed, the technical committee responsible for assessing damage to the shuttle was unable to assess the extent of the damage since the ship transporting it was still at sea.
