Where the Business of Travel Retail in the Americas Gets Done 

The Summit of the Americas is the one event dedicated to bringing together the travel retail community across the Americas.

Hosted by the Travel Retail Alliance of the Americas (TRAA), formerly International Association of Airport Duty Free Stores (IAADFS), the event brings together operators, brands, suppliers, airports, and industry partners to build connections, share insights, and explore opportunities unique to this dynamic region.

Whether you're looking to strengthen existing relationships, expand into new markets, or better understand the trends influencing travelers across the hemisphere, the Summit is where the Americas comes together.
