TFWA registrations up 23 percent

With less than three weeks to go before the start of the TFWA (Tax-Free World Association) Asia Pacific Exhibition & Conference, 1,480 duty-free operators, travel-retail businesses and landlords had registered for the event, according to the association’s newsletter, Evoice.

Registrations for the event, which will be held in Singapore May 11–15, were up 23 percent on those of last year.

The association is promising that improved registration facilities at street level this year will save time and offer direct access to the show floors.

Interactive screens will help visitors navigate the alleys and stands, with directions downloadable to smartphones via QR tags.
