About Us

Founded in 1951 by two immigrant families, International Shoppes (iShoppes) has evolved and expanded into a leading duty free and specialty retail operator in US based airports.

Headquartered in Valley Stream, NY, a mere 5 miles outside JFK, our longevity and longstanding airport partnerships puts us in an unparalleled position to develop best in class stores, and to offer the best available product assortment with exceptional customer service for our traveling customers.

Our Company is highly regarded amongst our vast network of business partners. This is due to the hands-on approach from our owner-management team that has been running the business continuously for 3 generations. The level of detail that goes into every aspect of our airport operations is a major point of differentiation. This is particularly true of our approach to store design and development whereby our shops are custom tailored to fit their terminals. This approach results in a unique and exciting shopping experience everywhere we operate.

We are currently located in New York's JFK International Airport (JFK); Honolulu’s Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (HNL); Maui’s Kahului Airport (OGG); Washington DC's Dulles International Airport (IAD); Baltimore’s International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI); Hartford's Bradley International Airport; and Houston's George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH).
