Harding Brothers

Harding Brothers is a long established family business centred in Bristol England, a traditional port city. No doubt this led to an association with the shipping industry and originally the Company started as a ship's supplier and chandler from this port. Today they are one of the world's largest cruise ship on-board retail store operators, running duty-free outlets for many famous lines. Cunard with their transatlantic and global cruises is probably the most famous, but the list of contracts includes P&O Cruises, Azmara, Fred Olsen, Thomson Cruises and Royal Caribbean.

All these stores will offer duty-free and tax-free shopping on board ship, if you are travelling internationally and outside the European Union. Often, the duty-free shops are not allowed open until they are outside territorial waters. We would like to feature links to the on-line catalogues and prices for these various cruise lines, but at present, most shipping lines are yet to launch their shopping website. No doubt, this will change soon.


The duty free on arrival global search 'App' for phone and tablet is now available in Android version beta v1, we are working hard to make it the best travel shopping site and mobile App available, the Apple/iOS version will follow soon. You will be able to search the globe from your phone for duty-free shops at your destination, on planes, boats, airports or border stores.
