The luggage company has launched its first Queensland store at Brisbane Airport, marking its return to its home market.

Located at the Domestic Terminal, near Gate 24, Globite offers school cases – carried by Australian children throughout most of the 20th Century – suitcases and other bags. Globite was founded in the late 1890s and is recognised as one of the leading makers of travel bags and accessories worldwide.

“Globite’s heritage cases hold a great deal of nostalgia for travellers, and it is wonderful to be able to offer customers the chance to fall in love with their products all over again, or for the very first time,” said Martin Ryan, Brisbane Airport Corporation’s Executive GM commercial.

Globite is the newest store to open at Brisbane Airport, as part of the $40M Domestic Terminal retail upgrade project.
