The Frontier Awards are the ‘Oscars’ of the duty-free and travel retail industry. The awards ceremony will take place in Cannes during the TFWA World Exhibition.
Now in its 34th year, the Frontier Awards are recognised by the duty and tax free industry as the most prestigious set of accolades of their kind. Taking place at the Congress Mandelieu Expo Centre in Cannes, the Frontier Awards acknowledge best practice, reward innovation and celebrate excellence across the global travel retail channel and are judged independently by some of the most influential people in the industry, thereby delivering the ultimate level of prestige to both winning and shortlisted entrants.
