SPAIN. WHSmith has opened two stores at Tenerife South Airport. One is landside and is a new unit, the other is located airside.
The stores offer Spanish and International newspapers, magazines and books as well as confectionery, drinks, grab & go sandwiches and travel essentials.
The openings continue WHSmith’s expansion into the Spanish market following the opening of two stores in Alicante Airport in April 2016.
WHSmith’s Head of Business Development Andy Thomas said: “Securing the contract for the stores in Tenerife is another milestone in the development of our business in Spain.
“We have worked hard to develop our business and build an infrastructure in Spain to allow us to look at further growth opportunities in AENA’s network of airports. The team has delivered a high standard of design for these stores and provided a step-change to the traditional ‘news and books’ operation in Tenerife Airport. Feedback from our landlord and customers has been very positive.”
