The new store is Travelex’s 13th location at Hamad International Airport, and the brand’s second location in the Terminal’s Arrivals Meet & Greet area.
Designed to serve inbound visitors to the country, the store offers the capability to exchange up to 45 global currencies when purchasing Qatari Riyals, as well as offering opportunities to send money to over 350,000 locations globally.
Along with nine conventional retail outlets, Travelex also operates four ‘on-the-move’ kiosks across the terminT ravelexal, which can be relocated to serve busier areas at periods of high passenger traffic.
Travelex says the expansion in Qatar is a pre-emptive, strategic plan to meet inbound tourism demand at one of the Middle East’s busiest airports.
The store launch in December was attended by Ian Mason – Director for Business & Trade at the British Embassy in Qatar, Francois Bourienne – VP Commercial of Hamad International Airport and Nasir Lambe – General Manager for Travelex Qatar.
Batu Dölay, MD, Travelex Middle East and Türkiye said: “We are very pleased to be taking the next step in our ongoing expansion across Qatar. This is an immensely exciting time for regional tourism.”
