International Duty Free Shops - Morocco

Christopher James Tantoco is the Executive Vice President and General Manager of IDFS Morocco, the country’s first and leading duty free operator.

Patriarch of the Philippine luxury retail industry, Ambassador Bienvenido R. Tantoco and his wife, the late Mme Gliceria R Tantoco, along with their local partners, believed in the great potential of Morocco, in particular with regard to tourism. It was thus that in 1989, they decided to set-up the first International Duty Free Shops (IDFS) in Casablanca Airport.

Today IDFS operates 22 airside stores in 10 of the country’s largest airports, along with military and diplomatic shops. Since Christopher joined the company in 2012, IDFS sales have grown by a dramatic 20%.

Christopher holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration from Boston University School of Management, USA.
