They called it Duty Free Shoppers and opened shops in Hong Kong and at the Honolulu airport in Hawaii to target Asian tourists.

Business went so well that the pair hired a British accountant named Alan Parker and an American tax lawyer called Anthony Pilaro. Between 1977 and 1995, DFS generated $3 billion in dividends, 90 per cent of which the then four partners received in cash or funnelled into their tax-driven trusts or foundations,.
