go mobile opens retail outlet at MIA

go mobile is the first wireless telecommunications company in Malta to open a retail outlet at the Malta International Airport (MIA). The shop at the MIA officially opens today.
The go mobile MIA retail store is located in the Welcomers’ Hall at the airport terminal – a very central position that makes the outlet accessible to Maltese and foreigners alike.
The new outlet is offering an array of services and products to both locals and tourists, including Ready to go. Visitors arriving to Malta can conveniently purchase their 30-day mobile phone connection (go on Holiday) from the go mobile retail shop at the MIA. They can also inquire about go mobile’s services such as roaming. go mobile sales executive John Farrugia said in total go mobile now has seven retail stores spread around Malta and Gozo. The other shops are located in Marsa (head office), Sliema, Valletta, Msida, Fgura and Victoria (Gozo). “This ensures maximum coverage as well as a direct relationship with our users or prospective users,” he said.
“The new MIA outlet is strategically located to offer go mobile
services and products to anyone
visiting the airport, as well as to the thousands of tourists that visit Malta,” Mr Farrugia said.
A spokesman for Malta International Airport said that the opening hours of the go mobile outlet at MIA are extended beyond normal business hours to ensure that an adequate
service is given to the public. The addition of the go mobile retail outlet is also in line with MIA’s policy of offering an even wider range of
services to both the travelling customer as well as the public in general. For more information contact the go mobile MIA outlet on: 21 668100, or go care on: 79 222 146. One can also send an e-mail to: goretail@go.com.mt
