Extension of U.S. Airport Catering Contract

Autogrill Group subsidiary HMSHost has won a tender to extend the catering contract at the Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport in Georgia by 10 years.

Autogrill Group (Milan: AGL IM) subsidiary HMSHost has won a tender for the 10-year extension (to 2032) of the contract at Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport, in Georgia (USA).

The revenue forecast for the period of the extension is around 85 million dollars.

HMSHost will widen its current offering in the airport by opening the PGA TOUR Grill, a golf-themed restaurant.

The food and beverages offering will also be enriched by Service Brewing Taphouse, a craft brewery, alongside the Auntie Anne's concept and The Great American Bagel.

These four new points of sale will be added to those already being operated by the Group - under the Burger King and Starbucks's brands - between the end of this year and the beginning of 2017.

Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport served over two million passengers and more than 88,000 flights last year.
