At 0600 this morning, TRG Concessions opened its 5th catering outlet in Aberdeen International Airport and became the exclusive catering partner for the Airport.
TRG Concessions has worked with the Airport since 2009 to develop and operate catering concessions and employs a team of 60 on-site at the summer peak
The Granite City pub has been taken over by TRG Concessions as part of a long-term investment programme at the Airport that will see more than £2m spent refurbishing and developing the food and beverage offers over the next 18 months. The pub was previously operated by JD Wetherspoon.
The Granite City is located before security control, named after the affectionate term for the city of Aberdeen, and will retain its name but undergo a refurbishment project and menu refresh during coming months.
Nick Ayerst, Managing Director for TRG Concessions, said, “The Granite City is the perfect addition to our portfolio and our refurbishment will enhance the mix of catering available for passengers at Aberdeen International Airport.
'We look forward to welcoming our new team members into the business and investing in them and the site over the coming months.
'Being the only caterer on-site brings with it a greater responsibility to the Airport and all of their passengers – our expanded team will work closely with the Airport team to meet that challenge in the same way we have collaborated to overcome other challenges since 2009.”
