Duty-free sales in Korea hit a new record in the first half of the year,... on the back of new store openings and local fashion brand sales.
According to the Korea Duty Free Shops Association Wednesday,... sales in the first half reached nine-point-nine billion U.S. dollars,… an all-time record high.
The sales growth is being attributed... to the opening of new duty-free stores in central Seoul and Incheon International Airpot.
Local fashion brands are also becoming more popular among Chinese shoppers,... adding to the duty-free revenues.
