The International Association of Airport and Duty Free Stores (IAADFS) said Mark Mariani of 3Sixty Duty Free & More has joined the association’s board of directors, filling the seat vacated by Philip Hancock.
Mariani, currently vice president of business development at 3Sixty Duty Free & More, has spent his entire professional career in the duty free industry, starting in 1990 when he joined Philip Morris International (PMI) as a sales representative in San Francisco. He also worked for Scorpio Distribution, heading up the Americas Division, then was brought in by Heinemann Americas to assist with opening up its Miami offices.
“Mark has a tremendous amount of knowledge and a broad understanding of the duty free and travel retail business,” said Michael Payne, IAADFS president and CEO. “His experience from both the supplier and buyer sides will bring a unique perspective and focus to the IAADFS Board as we all adjust to the constantly changing dynamics of our business.”
