MILAN, Italy – Through its subsidiary HMSHost, Autogrill is strengthening its operations in the North American market having been awarded two new contracts at the airports of Baltimore/Washington (Maryland) and Greensboro (North Carolina).

Under these agreements Autogrill expects to generate total revenues of over $180m in the ten year duration of the two concessions: over $130m at Baltimore/Washington and around $50m at Greensboro.

The Group will operate 13 points of sale: four new ones in Baltimore in addition to the existing three, and six new ones in Greensboro.

Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport, is the 23rd busiest airport in North America. In 2015 it set an annual record 23.8 million passengers. Its five terminals have 82 gates.

In this airport the Group will offer to travellers an offering of restaurants driven by famous chefs – Family Meal, of the renowned Maryland chef Bryan Voltaggio, and Kapnos Marketa, of chef Mike Isabella – as well as the Brix & Vine wine bar and four Starbucks coffee houses.
