Alpha Retail have an extensive range of airport shopping outlets in the UK, USA, and Sri Lanka. These include World News, Glorious Britain, Zinq, and Sunglasses Studio.

John Butler Contracts Ltd has worked closely with Alpha Retail for many years, installing various types of flooring in their numerous shopping outlets.

A range of flooring materials are regularly used, with porcelain ceramic tiles being the choice for their perfumery and designer label areas, for its sheen and unparalleled durability. Being placed within an airport naturally means heavy traffic, but style is of the utmost importance too.


Working with Alpha Retail means working to tight deadlines and giving special consideration to logistical aspects of projects. Good communication and discussion are the keys to providing flooring solutions which succeed on all counts.
