HMSHost International will further expand its food and beverage services at East Midlands Airport, opening the airport’s first Starbucks store.
HMSHost continue to contribute to East Midlands Airport by developing facilities and services that meet and exceed expectations of the customers and respond to the growth of this airport. By the end of February 2017 travellers can visit the new Starbucks store located post-security to enjoy the Starbucks experience, offering the highest quality Arabica coffee in a comfortable and welcoming place between their home and travel destination. To cope with high demand HMSHost has further expanded the popular and busy Castle Rock Taproom and Kitchen and increased the number of seats. The popular bar concept is designed to celebrate Nottingham-based Castle Rock Brewery and offers a wide selection of locally produced food and drinks.
Walter Seib, CEO of HMSHost International said, “To be part of a successful team is always a big joy. The partnership with East Midlands Airport illustrates that both parties are putting in all efforts of facilitating the travel process. Our goal is to make travellers feel good on the move and with Starbucks we know we’re able to accomplish that goal.”
Andy Cliffe, managing director East Midlands Airport said, “We have worked together with HMSHost to improve our food and beverage offering for the passengers at East Midlands Airport. To now offer a world renowned coffee brand is fantastic news and we are sure that it will a favourite for many of the 4.6million passengers we serve. The Castle Rock Taproom and Kitchen has already been incredibly popular and now with increased seating; more of our passengers can enjoy the locally produce on offer. We look forward to continue to work closely with HMSHost to develop our airport even further in the future.”
