Historical reference
The creators of this kind of trade were Charles Feeney and Robert Miller back in 1960. The idea of duty-free was picked up and instantly distributed throughout the world. In Moscow, institutions of this kind appeared in the time of the dashing nineties (after the collapse of the Soviet Union), which had absolutely no effect on the service and quality of the goods offered. Many of us remember that at the time of the Iron Curtain, imported products were not just hard to get, and sometimes even impossible. In 1988, the Ministry of Civil Aviation adopted a Russian-Irish agreement, according to which the Irish side was to supply goods for duty-free trade. From that moment, the development of duty-free began in the countries of the Soviet Union, which continues to this day.
