Falic Group, travel retailer, distributor and owner of Duty Free Americas, is to expand into new travel retail channels—rail, cruise and diplomatic sectors—and new markets across the Middle East, Africa, Europe and the Americas.

The expansion will be supported by new distribution hubs and partnerships with travel retail players.

Falic Group will launch UETA MEA, a new business aimed at strengthening distribution across the Middle East and Africa. The company says UETA MEA will offer 24/7 support to diplomats, a range of premium products—including fragrances and cosmetics—as well as fulfill various diplomatic requests.

In addition, Falic Group is set to announce three partnerships with travel industry players. These partnerships will focus on developing in the cruise sector, improving border-related functions and establishing a new distribution platform in Europe.
