When it started in 1998, DutyFreeZone.com was buying inventory from vendors for its Curacao distribution center located right on the airport runway, taking orders online and shipping them to consumers worldwide.
DutyFreeZone.com re-invented itself in 2020 when suddenly the Covid 19 pandemic changed the entire industry. At that time, Reynald Grattagliano, DutyFreeZone.com founder, came up with the idea to open a multi sellers’ marketplace. Its goal is to help thousands of duty-free shops and brands sell online all together under one roof to serve a crisis-hit industry struggling to stay alive.
With DutyFreeZone.com, consumers have in front of them a vast choice of thousands of brands available, usually sold in shops and duty-free shops from manufacturers from all over the world.
DutyFreezone.com aims to become the world’s largest luxury duty-free mall where the consumers can find all they need under one roof.
Vendors worldwide can sell products on DutyFreeZone.com that they drop-ship from other vendors or ship directly from their location or distribution center to customers located anywhere in the world.
DutyFreeZone.com showcase millions of products from thousands of brands posting their products for sale on the DutyFreeZone.com online platform.
Customers worldwide can purchase any combination of products in a single checkout instead of buying them from an airport or a mall and have their order delivered right to their home or office.
Vendors process the payments through DutyFreeZone.com payment gateway who in turn distribute the money to the vendors after deducting a small commission.
