FORT LEE, NJ, Feb. 16, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NewMediaWire -- Clikia Corp. (OTC: CLKA), an emerging leader in the global custom luxury goods marketplace, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Maison Luxe, announces an additional $100,000 purchase order from Signet International Group (“Signet”) for the travel retail market bringing total purchase orders so far this year from Signet to over $450,000.
The travel retail market includes airports, cruise lines, ferries, and ports. Airports lead the way and are expected to remain the dominant player in the upcoming years. The travel retail market experienced a tremendous setback in 2020 due to the worldwide pandemic known as COVID-19. As a result, the travel retail market which was valued at US$ 74.31 Bn in 2019 is estimated to reach only US$ 33.43 Bn in 2020, registering a year-on-year decline of over 55%. However, with expected relaxations in travel restrictions from the start of 2021, the market can expect a steady increase in retail sales during the forecast period from 2020 to 2028.
However, at a conservative growth forecast of about 4.1% during the forecast period, the travel retail market is expected to reach US$ 46.11 Bn by 2028. Some of the factors driving this estimated growth include an uptick in international travel post COVID-19 restrictions, travel retailers adopting digital technologies to drive online sales, and promotional activities planned by leading retailers. This outlook for 2021 and beyond is very encouraging to the projected growth of Clikia.

Anil Idnani, CEO of Clikia, stated, “The increasing distribution through Signet’s established network in the travel retail market is leading to increasing revenues and profitability for Clikia as the travel retail market recovers from the devastating effects of Covid-19.”
