Inflight Sales Group (ISG) has reinforced its position in Asia with the addition of the inflight duty-free and duty-paid concession onboard Garuda Indonesia airline.
The new programme will be launched April 1 under a partnership with parent company PT Garuda Indonesia (Persero) Tbk.
Together with the current contract with Citilink, a low-cost subsidiary of the same group, ISG has strengthened its footprint in Indonesia and the agreement continues the growth momentum within ISG, said the inflight concessionaire.
ISG executive director Vimal Rai said: “Winning a competitive partner selection process is always delightful! ISG now stands ready to deliver an exciting and dynamic inflight retail programme for Garuda. We are confident to take it to the next level, commensurate with Garuda’s five-star status as an airline. We, together with the PT Rodamas Wirasakti team in Indonesia, have had a long history of retail partnership with Garuda already, and after a short break, we are happy to be bringing new insights and innovations to the airline’s inflight retail offering.
ISG managing director Tony Detter added: “While we are expanding in the European market, we continue to see great potential in the Asian market. With the extensive network that Garuda is flying and its forecasted growth, we foresee that there is an opportunity to further expand ancillary revenues through inflight sales.”
