Thélios, the eyewear expert of LVMH Group, is participating in the TFWA Asia Pacific Exhibition & Conference in Singapore next week (7-11 May) for the first time.

In a private meeting space, Thélios will present its luxury global travel retail (GTR) eyewear collections from selected Maisons of its portfolio, including Dior, Fendi, Celine, Givenchy, Loewe, Stella McCartney and Kenzo. Appointments are being arranged by invitation only.

“We are looking forward to meeting with many of our existing Asia-based travel retail partners at the show,” said Alessandro Eucaliptus, Thélios Head of Travel Retail.

“We hope to engage with new partners in the region and continue to grow our GTR footprint in this important market.”

Building its travel retail presence is a key target for the company. On top of having a foothold in major international markets, Thélios is planning on stepping up business in Asia – including China – as well as in the Middle East.

“We are targeting Asia’s top regional airports and downtown locations for growth,” said Eucaliptus. “Luxury destination marketing will be key for Thélios.”

Thélios designs, produces and distributes sunglasses and optical frames from its Manifattura, located in Longarone, Italy, drawing upon Italian craftsmanship to create ‘exceptional’ products.
