Lagardère Travel Retail opens new last minute “Duty Free Express” store at Lima Jorge Chávez International Airport

Lagardère Travel Retail has opened a new “last minute” duty free store at Jorge Chávez International Airport in Lima, Peru. The 182-sqm shop reinforces the commercial offer at Jorge Chávez, extending the opportunity to purchase all the way to the final moments before boarding, according to the company.

The new Duty Free Express store follows the June 2025 opening of Lagardère Travel Retail’s 4,000-sqm duty free and duty paid retail alongside a 3,300-sqm dining area within Lima’s new terminal, which anchors the company’s presence in Latin America.

Duty Free Express presents a streamlined, accessible and efficient duty free offer positioned at the gate, with a diverse assortment spanning perfumes & cosmetics, liquor, food, fashion and other categories. The store is tailored to suit a wide range of traveler profiles and purchasing needs ranging from a spontaneous gift, a travel essential or a treat before take-off.

This opening is a further demonstration of Lagardère Travel Retail’s ability to create a coherent and comprehensive commercial ecosystem within the airport, says the company.

“By combining a flagship duty free destination with a dedicated last-minute offer, Lagardère Travel Retail Peru ensures that every passenger can enjoy a relevant and convenient shopping experience when traveling from Lima,” says the company in its official announcement.

  “The opening of Duty Free Express marks another step forward in strengthening the commercial offering of the new Jorge Chávez Airport. We want every passenger to find a shopping experience at the airport that is agile, modern, and aligned with the international standards that today define the world’s leading airport terminals,” comments Marinela Beke, Retail Business Manager at Lima Airport Partners.

 Miguel Ruiz, CEO of Lagardère Travel Retail Peru, adds: “This new opening is important in that it will help us to maximize the commercial opportunity at Lima Jorge Chávez Airport, while offering travelers even greater choice and convenience. As ever we are grateful to Lima Airport Partners for their support in helping identify new ways to serve our customers even more efficiently.”
