Bristol Airport calls for Expressions of Interest in food & beverage concessions

UK. Bristol Airport is inviting Expressions of Interest for a series of food & beverage concessions.

The tenders are for outlets encompassing casual dining, fast food, coffee/bread units, and grab and go.

First-class food: Expressions of Interest must be submitted by 6 April 2018

Bristol Airport is the ninth largest airport in the UK and handled over eight million passengers in 2017. It has invested more than £160 million (US$226 million) in new infrastructure and facilities since 2010.

“We are inviting businesses to provide a complementary blend of dining and drinking opportunities at Bristol Airport,” said Head of Commercial Development Kate Ridgers.

“Meeting the needs and culinary preferences of customers in a relaxed, welcoming and innovative environment, with customer service and value for money at the core, is key.”

Ridgers noted that preferred partners were likely to be experienced UK, international or local brands operating in high turnover locations.

“With the expiry of the existing agreement in autumn 2018, we are looking for key business partners to provide a first-class food & beverage experience to our passengers,” she concluded.

Expressions of Interest for the concessions are required in writing by 6 April 2018. Interested parties should contact fbtender@bristolairport.com for further information.

The airport handled over 8 million passengers in 2017. Planning approvals are in place to increase capacity to 10 million passengers per annum.
