Changi Airport Group (CAG) has divided its chocolate, candy, delicatessen concessions in the Departure/Transit Lounges of Terminals 1, 2, 3 and 4, between Focus Network Agencies (FNA) and Dufry-owned Nuance (Singapore); FNA will operate stores over five premises while Nuance takes four.

As reported, CAG issued an invitation to concessionaires to participate in a direct marketing exercise for nine confectionery concessions in July.

Concessions A, C and D have been awarded to FNA. Premises A2, C1, C2 and D will all adopt The Cocoa Trees fascia and retail concept, duplicating the existing unit in Terminal 4. FNA’s Taste Singapore will be located in premise A3.

Dufry-owned Nuance will open its ‘Sweet Garden’ concept in four premises as part of its Concession B package.

CAG stipulated in July that it was looking for high impact store designs and creative concepts offering passengers ‘an unforgettable experience’, alongside a suitable product spread accounting for different tastes and price points.

Additionally, CAG said it was seeking iterations using creative technology and visual merchandising techniques and/or marketing activations to drive penetration and conversion.

“As one of the most accessible and inclusive categories, the chocolate/candy/delicatessen concessions serve to diversify our retail offerings while delivering a fun and vibrant vibe to the overall retail ambience at Changi,” CAG said in a document.
