The new association of companies which are active in travel retail and duty free in the Asia Pacific region has held a working meeting in Hong Kong to develop plans for the formation of this first regional association.
The Executive Committee of the Asia Pacific Travel Retail Association (APTRA), as it will be known henceforth, met on 27 September to develop the proposed statutes of the Association, to agree the types of membership which would be offered, and to discuss future strategy and communication plans.
