HDS Retail North America is proud to announce the award of two new store locations at Jean Lesage International Airport in Quebec City, Quebec. HDS Retail will be opening a RELAY News & Gift store along with a stand-alone Duty Free location in the airport that services Quebec's capital city. This award will add to the company's current line of Duty Free stores in smaller market airports in Canada as well as offer passengers in Quebec City the chance to experience RELAY, the world's largest travel News & Gift brand.

Both locations will be opening in the newly expanded terminal at Jean Lesage International Airport. The new stores will be delivered as part of the airport's terminal modernization project in anticipation of Quebec City's 400-year anniversary 2008 celebrations that represent a key component of the airport's $200 million long-term master plan development.

The festivities surrounding the city's 400-year anniversary, already underway and continuing throughout 2008, will bring a record number of tourists to Quebec City and through the airport. The new terminal will provide services to all domestic, transborder and international flights under one roof, exposing all passengers to the new RELAY and Duty Free stores. The two stores will embrace the heritage and beauty of Quebec City and help provide travelers with a sense of place in one of North America's most historic and scenic cities.

The RELAY and Duty Free locations are expected to open in June 2008, along with the completion of the terminal's expansion at Jean Lesage International Airport.
