The duty-free bidding at Incheon International Airport Terminal 1 (T1) may succeed due to the lowest bid price cut and recovery of the Korea-China relationship.
According to Incheon International Airport Corporation, Lotte & Silla, Shinsegae and Dota Duty Free participated in the tender for the T1 duty-free bidding. The Hyundai Department Store Group, Hanwha Galleria, Dupree, etc. who participated in the bid briefing last month did not make a final bid. The bidding is expected to be conducted for the DF1 and DF5 areas this year when the Lotte Duty Free Shop decided to withdraw from the market due to the rent burden. DF1 combined DF1 (perfume and cosmetics) and DF8 (all-inclusive), while DF5 (leather and fashion) are separate business areas.
