Nestlé ITR allies with Ospree Duty Free on new confectionery space
By Benedict Evans |

Confectionery continues to be one of the most dynamic and high-performing categories in Indian travel retail. Its universal appeal—whether for gifting, sharing, or personal enjoyment – makes it a key pillar of the duty free journey.
Ospree Duty Free has announced the launch of a new Nestlé Travel Retail dedicated space at Mumbai Duty Free arrivals, bringing travellers a best-in-class experience in the confectionery and beverage space.
From brands like KitKat, Smarties, and Nestlé Sustainably Sourced Cocoa, the new space offers a vibrant, shopper-centric layout, intuitive navigation, and storytelling—creating a blend of global appeal and local relevance.
Nestlé has executed a concept tailored specifically for Mumbai Duty Free’s arrival terminal, and in addition to the strong confectionery offering, this launch also marks the introduction of a dedicated coffee section, featuring a curated range of premium Nestlé coffee products.
As global passenger numbers continue to grow, Ospree and Nestlé said they remain committed to delivering food category experiences that successfully convert travellers into shoppers.
Fred Porchet, General Manager Nestlé International Travel Retail, commented: “Food and especially confectionery is a significant sales driver in GTR and particularly with Indian travellers. Ospree have demonstrated their commitment to being consumer led not only by prioritising this category but embracing the vision for innovation and engagement we both wanted to drive.
This is a great example of how we can deliver elevated and engaging experiences in confectionery, critical to converting the Gen Z audience.”.
“We’re proud to take our collaboration with Nestlé to new heights with this latest execution at Mumbai Duty Free. The addition of a dedicated coffee section alongside a world-class confectionery showcase reflects our joint focus on elevating the travel retail experience and offering travellers more value and variety. We look forward to many more such milestones together,” added a spokesperson for Ospree Duty Free.
