The winners were drawn from a high-class shortlist across 22 hotly-contested categories, generated via a mix of self-nomination or nomination by independent parties.
The Moodie Davitt Report Director of Development & Innovation Matt Willey said: “This year, we have received a wonderful array of nominations from businesses that have skilfully navigated through the tail-end of COVID restrictions and into a period of rapid revival, delivering campaigns and executions of impressive ambition, scale and complexity.
“It has been a privilege for the judging panel to study the huge and diverse range of nomination material, which has meant some long and difficult deliberations to decide the winners.
“The entries underline the vibrancy of the broader travel retail ecosystem as a means of engaging the consumer through brilliant digital adoption and execution. This culture of innovation, clearly heightened during the pandemic, lends weight to hopes of a super-charged recovery in the next chapter of the travel retail evolution.”
A forthcoming special edition of The Moodie Davitt eZine will profile the winners of The Moodies 2022 in detail.
