Our Story

Point Zero: where every company's travel retail journey begins.

The one safe ecosystem for everyone who makes travel retail possible.

Our Story

Finding every supplier took me months, alone.

I previously worked in travel retail and know how fragmented the industry is. Information is scattered, suppliers are hard to reach, and building the right connections takes time, resources and persistence.

That experience inspired TRI: a platform designed to bring the industry together.

1

Person doing the work of an entire department.

MONTHS

Lost chasing suppliers instead of building the business.

0

Places that mapped the ecosystem in one spot.

The Problem

Wasted time to meet the right suppliers.

At every trade show, suppliers pitch cold, stand to stand, while brands try to run their business. Good matches happen by luck, if they happen at all.

“The right connection shouldn't depend on who happens to walk past your stand.”

The Opportunity

The first platform to bring it all together.

Today, the travel retail industry is fragmented. TRI creates a single, trusted ecosystem for suppliers, brands, airports and service providers: a more connected travel retail industry.

Why I Built This

Built to solve the problem every newcomer faces.

“I pioneered two brands into travel retail, long before I ever thought about building a platform. I built Travel Retail Index because I lived the problem: running a travel retail business alone, with no team, no department, no one to hand the search to but me. I needed to save money, save time, and simply stay in business. So I built what I wished had existed: a place where the next person never has to do it alone.”
