Areas opens healthy-eating option Exki at Alicante Airport

SPAIN. Areas has opened its first Exki outlet at Alicante Airport, the fifth largest in Spain in terms of passenger traffic.

Belgian natural fast food brand Exki aims to offer fresh and natural products that are organic and fairtrade whenever possible, including a selection of organic coffees and teas. It also has a range of savoury and sweet recipes, created under the direction of Belgian chef Frank Fol, who specialises in vegetarian food.

The Belgian chain has more than 100 outlets throughout Europe and three in Spanish airports, of which two are located at Barcelona El Prat.

At Alicante, the 190sq m Exki space is structured in a grab-and-go format and has capacity for 90 diners.

The opening is part of the contract to manage eight food & beverage outlets at the airport that was awarded in February 2019. Areas has already opened café and bakery Santagloria, a Carlsberg pub, and a Lavazza café. Deli&Cia, Tagliatella, Subway and Starbucks will open soon.
