19th Annual ACI EUROPE
Airport Trading Conference and Exhibition
Mediterranean Conference Centre, Valletta, Malta – April 26-28 2010
New Decade, New Economic Cycle, Permanent Revolution: Reinventing your commercial offer to captivate the post-recession consumer
Taking place 26-28 April 2010, key topics to be addressed by leading industry experts include:
- Domino effects - recent impacts on airport retailing range from single bag carry-on restrictions through to continuing threats to tobacco merchandising. How are these issues being addressed and what other pressures and legislation are on the horizon across the business? Including: Security: Update on LAGs, dwell time and other processing improvements
- Outstanding case studies of commercial excellence embracing all airports
- The price is right? Delivering value consistently across the passenger experience (or how only one bad experience along the chain can destroy your customer’s appetite to spend).
- Getting personal: Engaging your consumer, knowing what they want, and telling them what you’ve got in dynamic new ways
The quality of the presentations was the
best I have seen at one of these events.

From riches to rags, back to riches again – unique lessons from high street and internet retailing
By 1990 Gerald Ratner had become the world’s largest jewellery retailer, but following a high profile gaffe where he called his products “total crap” he lost it all, but has since come back strong again through a new online business – geraldonline.com
