MSP concessions win airport industry awards

Two of MSP’s concepts were recognized at this year’s Airports Council International-North America (ACI-NA) Concessions Awards program.

PGA MSP Airport took home two awards: first place in the Best New Retail Concept category and third place in Best Innovative Consumer Experience Concept or Practice. Hammer Made took second place for Best New Local Concept.

ACI-NA’s 2016 Excellence in Airport Concessions Awards promotes the innovative spirit of the airport concessions industry and recognizes excellence in airport concessions programs. This year’s contest received more than 125 nominations from airports of all sizes throughout the United States and Canada. 

“Airports work continuously to enhance the passenger experience, and the ACI-NA Excellence in Airport Concessions Awards recognize the most innovative and outstanding airport concessions that are essential to that effort,” said ACI-NA President and CEO Kevin M. Burke. “MSP’s leadership in a competitive industry exemplifies their commitment to their passengers, their customers, and their community.”

The awards were announced during an awards gala dinner at the 2016 ACI-NA Business of Airports Conference in Orlando, Fl. The conference was attended by nearly 500 commercial management, human resource, and finance representatives from the North American airport industry.
