In pursuit of its expansion policy, Tech-Airport, a company of The Swatch Group Ltd.– in collaboration with Swatch Group Italia – has opened a new boutique in Italy, operational as from April 28, 2011.

Favorably located in the Schengen Area, in Venice’s Marco Polo Airport, this ring-shaped retail space of about 80 m² presents travelers with a range of successful watch brands including Longines, Rado, Tissot, Hamilton, cK Watch & Jewelry, Swatch and Flik Flak.

The opening of this nineteenth multi-brand Hour Passion store boosts the visibility of the expert watch and jeweler airport retailer. Tech-Airport is already well-established in eight major European airports in France, Switzerland, Ireland and Germany, where it continues to consolidate its presence and keeps gaining visibility through its multi-brand or flagship boutiques operating under the Hour Passion, Swatch and Omega brand names.

In the airport retail scene, Tech-Airport continues to assert its know-how and its concepts. It has been proactively developing non-stop since it was founded in 2004: in 2012, it will have a network of 40 sales outlets.
