THIS IS NOT A PROCUREMENT NOTICE. Duty Free opportunity opening at Helsinki Airport in 2029! Finavia is looking for retail operators to be part of building the future of Helsinki Airport and to create value for our future flight passengers in the 20 million passenger category at a strong international hub. Helsinki Airport presents a great opportunity to reach international clientele for operators with strong experience operating large-scale retail operations in an international retail environment, high service quality, relevant and cutting-edge retailing. In addition to a vibrant, international hub, Helsinki Airport offers a unique sense of place, where brands – big and small, established and rising, international and local – have the opportunity to come together and operate successfully. The objective of this RFI is to identify retail operators that align with Finavia's vision of providing a unique and engaging shopping experience for travellers. We are particularly interested in solutions that offer highly recognized and sought-after local and global brands and products, agility in meeting fast-changing consumer needs, exceptional customer service, and innovative approaches to retail without forgetting the sense of place of Helsinki Airport. This RFI is non-binding and aims to gather insights from innovative and well-established retail operators who are interested in operating an airport-wide duty-free business in Finland at the award-winning Helsinki Airport. Finavia estimates the business opportunity consists of multiple premises across all terminal parts (Schengen and non-Schengen gate areas), totalling approximately 3000-4000 m2. Contact us and join the conversation on this opportunity at the leading Nordic airport. • Registration for interest and a short free-form company presentation should be sent by email with the subject line: “RFI – Duty Free premises at Helsinki Airport” to [email protected] by 31 October 2026. • Based on the registrations, Finavia may contact and invite selected potential operators to join a live pre-market discussion regarding the upcoming opportunity. Discussions will be conducted in English or Finnish at separately agreed locations (e.g. Helsinki Airport) or by online via Microsoft Teams. Possible discussions will be held during Q4/2026-Q2/2027. • Participation to this RFI is free-form and non-binding for all parties and is not a prerequisite for participating in a possible procurement. Finavia will be present at TFWA World Exhibition & Conference in Cannes, France, during 28-30 September 2026 and requests interested parties to contact to arrange a short introductory meeting and discussion on future retail opportunities at Helsinki Airport. Preliminary schedule for the upcoming tender. The tender is estimated to be launched in Q2-Q3/2027. The premises shall be handed over to the tenant in separately agreed phasing at the beginning of 2029, with all stores opening during 2029.
