WH Smith has opened its first store in the Netherlands, at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, and expanded its presence in Spain with two new locations at the Región de Murcia International Airport in Murci, the Bookseller reported.
"We’re very pleased to have opened our first store in Amsterdam Airport Schiphol," said Phil McNally, WH Smith International managing director, adding that this is "a significant contract" for the company "as we expand our presence in a major European airport, recognized for its state of the arts retail proposition." Two more WH Smith stores are scheduled to open at the airport in 2020 and 2021.
McNally added that the "new stores at the international airport in Murcia mark another great contract win for our business in Spain and complements our existing operations in Alicante-Elche, Tenerife Sur and Adolfo Suarez Madrid-Barajas airports."
