The Food Collective will feature a centralised seating area and self-order kiosks allowing passengers to order food across all five restaurants: Ze Pickle, Upper West Side Deli, YO! Sushi, Nippon Ramen and Mi Casa Burritos.
YO! Sushi will offers customers sushi, sashimi and other classic Japanese dishes, while Nippon Ramen will serve up a selection of dumplings and ramen noodles. The Mi Casa Burritos will offer Mexican dishes and a newly refurbished Roll’d concept store will return to the Domestic Terminal.
Mark Angela, chief executive of SSP Asia Pacific, said; “We’re proud to be working in co-operation with Brisbane Airport to develop the Food Collective, which is a style of concept that has never been seen before in Australian travel retail.
“With our strong range of local and international brands and cutting-edge design, our intention is to create a welcoming environment that captures the true spirit of Brisbane. This is SSP’s largest commercial win in Australia to date and will cement our reputation in this important market.”
SSP will rotate new food and beverage offers midway through the contract to ensure the consumer offer continues to remain relevant.
Martin Ryan, executive general manager consumers at Brisbane Airport Corporation (BAC), added: “Brisbane travellers are already familiar with the fresh and tasty food and excellent service offerings of SSP-managed stores, which opened three F&B stores in the Domestic Terminal in 2016.
“Food Collective will further complement the high-quality in-terminal offerings, while providing travellers with an exciting range of pre-flight dining options that draw inspiration from popular food styles around the world.”
The Food Collective is scheduled to open in November 2019 on level two departures (Northern end) of Brisbane Airport’s Domestic Terminal.
