Pine Labs Merchants Success Stories: Delhi Duty Free

Background

Global duty-free and travel retail

Delhi Duty Free Services (DDFS) manages and operates duty-free stores at Indira Gandhi International Airport. The store provides beauty products, beverages, confectionery, and destination merchandise for travelers. Over the years, DDFS has emerged as an attractive shopping destination offering a diverse portfolio of leading local and international brands under one roof. In the next three to five years, it aims to become the world's best travel retail outlet.

Challenge

Need for smooth payment transactions

With an increasing number of people travelling abroad, shopping at duty-free stores at airports has seen a steady rise. To capitalize on the growing opportunity, DDFS was looking to provide a seamless shopping experience to buyers. Also, with a busy airport shop floor it was very important for DDFS to have a real-time data sync with the POS. This was also the key to managing stocks and sales for omni-channel commerce.
