SPAIN. Areas, the international catering arm of Elior Group, has been awarded an eight-year contract to open seven new establishments at Malaga Airport.

The new catering venues will include three from Carte d’Or, an ice cream specialist; two from MasQMenos, which focuses on beer, Spanish ham and tapas; and premium sushi bar Kirei, overseen by renowned chef Ricardo Sanz.
The final addition is BiBo Flamenco Bar&Tapas, the latest outpost of two Michelin-starred chef Dani García’s Bibo chain, which focuses on “pure innovation and quality ingredients”.
Areas Worldwide CEO Oscar Vela said: “The Areas team couldn’t be happier to have been awarded this contract. We presented a balanced proposal that included both nationally and internationally famous brands.
“We are very proud of our new collaboration with Dani García, a chef of international standing who will delight travellers stopping in Malaga. We want this airport to be a culinary reference where passengers leave with memories of tasty food.”
