CNSC Secures Eight-Year Arrivals Duty-Free Concession at Guiyang International Airport
Sinopharm-owned China National Service Corporation has won an eight-year arrivals duty-free concession at Guiyang Longdongbao International Airport, marking its first such store at the airport and a key expansion into Southwest China.
The concession is part of a broader government policy introduced in January, which aims to establish 41 arrivals duty-free shops across China. CNSC highlighted the store as a strategic addition to its network and a pivotal move as it expands into the Southwest China market.
CNSC stated it will tailor the product offering based on regional cultural characteristics and traveler preferences. The company plans to continuously refine product selections, upgrade service standards, and innovate operating models to provide a seamless, premium duty-free experience for passengers.
“We remain committed to elevating the port retail landscape via premium offerings and services, and will position the Guiyang Airport arrivals store as a key showcase of high-quality duty-free consumption in Southwest China,” a CNSC spokesperson said.
