Under the new joint venture, a number of international and local brands will open at the airport.
The new deal is expected to help the airport achieve its new commercial vision to offer a better retail experience to passengers.
Chris Rayner, CEO of SSP Latin America, said: “We’re delighted to have reached an agreement to open seven new restaurants in Salvador Airport. We’re looking forward to supporting Salvador Airport with their exciting plans to upgrade the passenger experience.”
Ritazza, the Italian espresso bar is one of the ‘key’ brands due to open at Salvador Airport. It will be joined by Italian restaurant Barzetti, Mexican-themed concept Mi Casa Burritos, baked goods specialists Millie’s and healthy eating brand Haven. The layout and menu of the outlets will be adapted to suit regional trends and tastes. New local brands will also be announced shortly.
The units will be distributed between the land-side Food Court and the airside area, both in the new commercial spaces in arrivals and in departures.
DFA President Leon Falic said: "We at DFA are very enthusiastic about SSP DFA Restaurantes Brasil Ltda., our joint venture company, and the new agreement with Vinci Airports at Salvador. The new restaurants, together with our DFA Duty Free and DFA Duty Paid Stores, will provide a unique sense of place experience for passengers going through Salvador Airport. We are committed and continue to work towards providing unique and memorable experiences for travellers."
