New brands, Hamburg souvenirs and a modern atmosphere

Gebr. Heinemann’s Destination Hamburg concept store is moving from Gate B53 into the Airport Plaza at Hamburg Airport, offering typical Hamburg souvenir articles such as from St. Pauli, HSV and Gin Sul.

The duty free operator is also opening Heinemann Duty Free in the Airport Plaza, with premium sunglasses from numerous designer brands. 

In the third shop, currently being remodelled adjacent to Gate A18, Heinemann will be launching its innovative “FAWJ” concept: Fashion, Accessories, Watches and Jewellery.

The new shop concepts offer customers the price benefit of Heinemann’s duty-free pricing. 

“My team and I are very excited about the new shops," says Thomas Brock, managing director of Gebr Heinemann Hamburg Airport.

"The Destination Hamburg Store is so well established, you could almost call it a classic. With the trendy new design, it will be even more attractive to the young target market. 

"And with the sunglasses and FAWJ shops, we are finally able to demonstrate our competence in these areas at Hamburg Airport again.We have an extensive product range for every passenger under the Heinemann Duty Free umbrella."
