Doha: Travelex, one of the world’s leading foreign exchange specialists, in partnership with Hamad International Airport (HIA), has announced the launch of their latest store concept “Mobile Foreign Exchange Stores”.
Located around HIA’s Concourse C and Concourse D, the mobile store concept provides airport customers with the benefits of a full-fledged foreign exchange branch packaged in a movable kiosk, allowing foreign exchange services to be further embedded within the customer’s journey.
This is in addition to the Travelex foreign exchange kiosks conveniently located across the airport terminal, accessible to departing, arriving and transferring passengers.
At the launch of the mobile stores, Travelex’s Commercial Director for the Middle East and Turkey, Batu Dölay, stated: “Launching mobile stores in Qatar is a key milestone in the partnership between Travelex and HIA. As the World’s Best Airport, we know HIA expects retailers to bring only the best for their customers and our mobile stores provide an elegant option for Travelex to ensure our services are consistently available to passengers regardless of their journey through the terminal.”
Sujata Suri, VP Strategy and Commercial Development, said: “As Hamad International Airport proudly caters to millions of its passengers from across the world, it is our responsibility to be perceptive and anticipate our passengers’ need for convenience and consistency in service. HIA therefore forms strategic partnerships with service providers like Travelex, which caters to ever-evolving customer needs. Travelex has been an airport partner for 10 years, since its operations at Doha International Airport, consistently providing its services to our passengers. Its latest concept store provides mobility and flexibility using innovation in forex services.”
