China Duty Free Group has set September 1 as the opening date of its giant Haitang Bay complex.
Haitang Bay International Shopping Complex is a large-scale duty-free commercial project invested in by China International Travel Service (CITS) and operated by China Duty Free Group. It integrates duty-free shopping, dutiable shopping, restaurants, entertainment venues and cultural presentation.
The duty free space spans 70,000 sqm.
Zhao Feng, deputy GM of China Duty Free Group, says Haitang Bay will be a tourist destination in its own right.
“We anticipate sales that are 30-50 per cent higher than our Sanya downtown duty free store,” she says.
CITS President Wang Weimin added Haitang Bay would be “the most distinctive travel retail outlet in China and even in the Asia Pacific region”.
