ETRC are to hold a European Industry Business Forum in Amsterdam

ETRC to hold Business Forum March 2007 in Amsterdam

The ETRC board has approved plans to hold a Business Forum in 2007, as the European industry looks to improve performance at a time when sales growth is not matching increases in passenger traffic.

The Forum will be held in Amsterdam and the likely dates are March 27-28. O'Connell said: "This would be the first opportunity since intra-EU duty free abolition for the travel-retail business in Europe to meet together and address the challenges of an enlarged EU market and converting rapidly growing EU passenger numbers into customers."

The trade association also vowed to monitor moves by the European Commission to change allowances for travellers entering the EU from third countries.
