Gustavo Fagundes, Dufry’s General Manager Brazil, expressed pride in being awarded the contract in Vitória and emphasized the shared values between Dufry and Zurich Airport Brasil. Fagundes stated, “Zurich Airport Brasil, a subsidiary of Flughafen Zürich AG, aims to be more than just an airport operator and is focused on connecting with the locations and cultures in which it operates, and on offering the best experience to its passengers in terms of customer service and facilities. These are values that Dufry also shares, and as the leading global travel experience player, we have utilized our extensive knowledge and expertise to deliver the best possible shopping experience to the three million plus passengers who visit Vitória airport each year. I also take this opportunity to thank the team at Zurich Airport Brasil for the trust they have shown in us.”

Ricardo Gesse, CEO of Zurich Airport Brasil, highlighted the positive impact of Dufry’s arrival at Vitória Airport on the commercial mix in the city. Gesse stated, “Dufry’s arrival at the airport raises the bar for Vitória’s commercial mix, as it brings brands and products that were previously not found in the city.” This expansion of available brands and products enhances the shopping experience for passengers, providing them with a unique opportunity to explore and purchase renowned luxury items and other retail products.
