DFW welcomes new brands
In response to a Request for Proposals issued earlier 2015, the Dallas/Fort Worth International (DFW) Airport Board of Directors approved 10 new concessions outlets.
“At DFW, we work hard to introduce new services and amenities that cater to the expanding demographics and tastes of our customers,” says Ken Buchanan, Executive Vice President-Revenue Management, DFW. “With these new concessions and retail shops, the Airport welcomes fantastic brands that will enhance the travelling experience and offer exciting choices.”
DFW’s Board approved 10 new or expanded locations for eight brands. An additional 24 locations will be awarded over the next two months, intended to provide more new shops for DFW customers.
“Since adding new international and domestic desti- nations, DFW Airport has seen a steady increase in customers,” says Buchanan. “These new shops and restaurants are a reflection of our commitment to provide our customers an outstanding retail, food service and relaxation experience at DFW.”
Potential concessionaires attended a series of workshops and outreach events with DFW Concessions representatives before the RFP was issued to learn about doing business with the airport, passenger demographic information, specifics about being located in an airport and proposal requirements.
Dallas / Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) is ready for the busiest summer in its 41-year history, with more than 18 million passengers expected during the 2015 summer travel season.
