Lagardère Travel Retail Expands with Six New Dining Concepts at Düsseldorf Airport

Lagardère Travel Retail Germany has secured six new dining spaces at Düsseldorf Airport after winning a competitive Europe-wide tender.

With this expansion and the addition of the new dining venues, Lagardère Travel Retail will operate 27 stores at the airport.
