According to a news release, the airport concessions program seeks local brands and flavors that represent North Texas tastes, character and creativity. The request for proposal is open through Feb. 2 for 11 food and beverage locations, and three specialty retail stores.
What they’re saying
“As we build new gates, reimagine existing spaces and construct a new Terminal F, DFW Airport is committed to showcasing our region through our shops and restaurants so that when people travel through our terminals, there’s no denying they have arrived in the heart of Dallas and Fort Worth,” said Ken Buchanan, DFW’s chief revenue officer. “DFW serves tens of millions of travelers each year, and this is a chance for local businesses to help create an incredible sense of place within our terminals.”
The details
The concepts for food range from fast-food, fast-casual, grab-and-go concepts to frozen treats, popcorn, cosmetic and specialty retail, according to a news release. The locations will be in terminals A, B, E and F.
In May, DFW Airport unveiled a list of 20 new concessions, a mix of national chains and local businesses, according to previous reporting.
What else?
DFW Airport had 87 million customers in 2024 and is expected to surpass 100 million passengers before 2030. The airport is currently expanding gate areas in terminals A and C, while adding Terminal F, part of a $12 billion capital improvement plan, according to a news release.
