As the world opens up for travel post-pandemic, Mango is expanding its airport presence and has just opened a new store in T4 of Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas Airport in Spain.  

In the next few months, the company will also open a store at the Tenerife Sur-Reina Sofía International Airport, taking advantage of the resurgence in travel to the popular holiday destination.

The three stores Mango currently operates in Spanish airports are located in Terminal 1 of Barcelona El Prat International Airport, and at Palma de Mallorca Airport and Seville Airport.

The new locations enjoy high visitor traffic. Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas Airport is Spain’s biggest airport in terms of passenger numbers, freight and the number of operations. It’s the fifth largest in Europe according to Eurostat Agency data, and the 15th largest in the world in terms of passenger numbers, according to Airports Council International (ACI) figures.

The new store has a selling space of over 610 square metres and carries the Woman, Man and Kids collections, also creating 25 new jobs.

It has a dedicated click & collect zone to collect and return orders, with an independent fitting room; as well as USB sockets in all fitting rooms, to allow customers to charge their mobile phones.

The Tenerife Sur-Reina Sofía Airport store will be at the busiest airport on the island of Tenerife. It doesn’t yet have an exact opening date, but will have a selling space of over 230 square metres and will stock the firm’s Woman line only.

The retailer has been continuing its store expansion programme in recent periods and has opened 61 (net) stores since last December. In the second half of the year, it’s planning to add a hundred new stores to its distribution network, to close 2022 with over 2,600 stores. New openings planned include a space at the popular Bluewater mall in Kent, UK.
