SSP signs seven-year London City extension

SSP Group has been awarded a seven-year contract extension at London City Airport, which will see the opening of brand-new concepts. The deal comes as part of a £12m upgrade of the departure lounge, which includes a revamp of the food and beverage offer.

Among the new offers will be the SSP-owned concept Hithes, which draws inspiration from the capital’s vibrant, multicultural culinary landscape. Soul and Grain, meanwhile, will offer fresh-to-go vegetarian and vegan options, as well as more indulgent treats and beverages from Extract Coffee Roasters.

Kari Daniels, chief executive officer of SSP UK and Ireland, said: “SSP has a long-standing relationship with London City Airport, spanning 20 years. We’re delighted to be bringing new concepts to London City passengers and have worked in close partnership with the airport to deliver a truly local, London experience. These concepts will give guests an opportunity to sample some of the most exciting foods from across the capital.”
