Beauty Concepts has joined forces with Beaute Luxe to open two multi-category duty free shops at Goa Dabolim International Airport (GOI).

Designed as elegant and immersive spaces, these two new stores – one located in departures and the other in arrivals – are scheduled to open in June 2025 and will showcase a selection of international brands in the fragrance, spirits and tobacco categories.

“Goa is a growing international airport with high tourist volumes and traffic of over six million passengers,” said David Dayan, CEO of Beaute Luxe.

“This opening reflects our commitment to continuing to raise awareness of our brand among international travellers, while adapting our offering to the specificities of the Indian market.”

It marks the first time that Beaute Luxe is offering a multi-segment selection, beyond its signature selective perfumery, while at the same time demonstrating a ‘stepping up’ of its international development strategy.

“Our deep market knowledge, operational excellence and commitment to delivering premium experiences have been instrumental in realising this vision at Goa International Airport. We look forward to setting new standards in duty-free shopping.”
