“We are inviting businesses to tender for the provision of a specialist retail unit within the departure lounge at Bristol Airport.  The preferred partners are likely to be a UK, international or a local brand who can meet the needs and preferences of customers in a relaxed and welcoming environment and have demonstrable experience of operating in a fast paced and dynamic environment.  Bristol Airport serves as the gateway to the South west and Wales and the potential partner would need to demonstrate high quality retail provision,  suitable for our passenger demographics whilst delivering outstanding customer service.”
