DFS

DFS Group is a global leader in the luxury travel retail sector, providing an exceptional shopping experience for travelers around the world. The company was founded in 1960 by Robert Miller and Charles Feeney, with the vision of serving the burgeoning market of international travelers.

DFS Group was among the pioneers of the duty-free retail concept, starting with its first store located at the Hong Kong Kai Tak Airport. The company rapidly expanded across Asia-Pacific, and later to Europe and North America, transforming the landscape of travel retail.

In 1996, LVMH Moët Hennessy - Louis Vuitton SE, the world's largest luxury conglomerate, acquired a controlling stake in DFS Group. Under the guidance of LVMH, DFS has further strengthened its position in the luxury travel retail market, offering a broad range of products from over 700 of the world's most desired brands in various categories including fashion & accessories, beauty & fragrances, watches & jewelry, wines & spirits, and food & gifts.

DFS Group is renowned for its extensive network of duty-free stores located in major global airports, as well as downtown T Galleria stores, a unique concept offering luxury retail outside airport locations. The company's emphasis on creating personalized, experiential shopping journeys for its customers sets it apart in the industry.

In terms of sustainability, as part of the LVMH Group, DFS adheres to the group's comprehensive environmental policy, the LIFE (LVMH Initiatives For the Environment) 2020 program. The program addresses key environmental challenges including carbon emissions, energy consumption, and sustainable supply chains.

Moreover, DFS Group has displayed a commitment towards community development in its operational regions. It regularly engages in philanthropic activities and partnerships with local organizations, focusing on areas such as education, health, and disaster relief.
