Over 300 guests attended the new store's opening, including Philippe Schaus, the DFS Group's President and CEO, Robert Miller and Aun Pornmoniroth, Cambodia's Economy and Finance Minister. The store, called T Galleria Angkor, is located in Siem Reap, a well-known tourist resort and provincial capital, close to the Angkor Wat historical site. Showcasing 170 brands over an 8,000 m² area, the T Galleria is Cambodia's largest duty-free and luxury department store. In 2016, DFS is also set to open a travel retail store in Venice, Italy.
