The Nuance Group has confirmed that a new concessionaire has been selected for the Copenhagen Airport Tax- and Duty-free Concession. The Nuance Group has operated the concession at Copenhagen Airport since 1995.
The current concession, which has been running since 2002, will end on 27 February 2007.
Following announcement by Copenhagen Airport A/S regarding the outcome of the tender process for the Tax- and Duty-Free tender, Jean-Paul Bonnel, CEO of The Nuance Group Europe, comments: “This decision by Copenhagen Airport does not come as a surprise given the history of our past cooperation.”
“We are convinced that we presented a very strong financial and commercial offer. In line with our past experiences in Copenhagen, we also built in some protection measures against risks.”
“We wish our successor luck in operating this new concession. Not having Copenhagen in our portfolio should materialize in improved profits for the coming year.”
