Two new outlets at La Goulette Ferry Port
Salvo Grima Group continues to expand the regional footprint of its Horizon travel retail brand, with the launch of two new outlets at La Goulette Ferry Port in Tunis.
With a modern and attractive layout, Horizon’s outlets at La Goulette now cater for both arriving and departing passengers, and extend the visibility of the Group’s new retail brand to another market. Over 820,000 ferry passengers use La Goulette every year, as this busy Mediterranean port offers regular connections to European ports including Marseille, Genoa, Civitavecchia, and Palermo.
This is therefore another significant step for the Group’s travel retail business, following the successful launch of its impressive 2,000 square metres flagship store in Algiers international airport, early in 2025.
Dermon Gatt, General Manager, Travel Retail stated ‘’Our Group has identified travel retail as a strategic growth sector and continues to drive this forward at pace. Horizon, our own brand, was designed as a concept that can be scaled up or down according to where there might be interesting business opportunities, and we have certainly proved the validity of this with our new La Goulette outlets.
We have pulled this off in spite of a number of logistical complexities, so credit is due to Anis Nciri, Country Manager, Tunisa and to all our team here in market, who have risen up to literally make this happen’’.
By opening up new channels for brand principals, and creating more quality retail experiences for customers, we see an encouraging future for Horizon, and look forward to growing this business even further’’.
The opening of Horizon’s La Goulette outlets was attended by senior Port executives, the Head of Customs, and a number of Tunisian officials.
