New Market Outpost Features BPM Vendors, Full Service Bar, and More
BOSTON (TBD 2019) — After four years of operation in Downtown Boston and nearly 8 million visitors welcomed through its doors, the Boston Public Market will be opening a second location with global restaurateur, HMSHost, and airport concessions developer and manager, MarketPlace Logan in Boston Logan International Airport’s Terminal C. Slated to open in late fall, the 6,000-square-foot outpost will reflect the same mission and high quality food as BPMA’s flagship market at 100 Hanover Street and showcase to Logan Airport’s more than 40 million annual travelers fresh food from Massachusetts and New England for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The new location will feature several food entrepreneurs currently at 100 Hanover Street in addition to a “grab and go” snack option, salad bar, and full-service Market Bar with beer, wine and liquor.
Offerings at the Boston Public Market at Logan will include:
Designed to mirror the 100 Hanover Street location, vendors will be represented in stall-style units surrounded by corrugated metal and salvaged barn board accents. Seating will be available in the center of the space, and a “HUB” board will display Market news and promotions.
“We have been overwhelmed by the impact the Boston Public Market has had in just four years of operation and the response we have received from the community. We are proud to support New England food producers and to provide fresh and healthy food while educating customers about the importance of local sourcing. We admire MassPort’s commitment to restructuring their food and beverage options to be healthier and more progressive as consumers want to feed their families simple, good food, and we are thrilled to partner with HMSHost and Marketplace at our Logan location. It is truly a privilege to showcase our innovative food entrepreneurs, artisans and chefs to visitors at Logan Airport,” said Cheryl Cronin, CEO of the Boston Public Market.
The BPM will be part of Logan Airport’s offerings based on lifestyle trends fueling the demand for healthier, local food at airports. BPM at the airport will be operated with HMSHost, a leading provider of food and beverage experiences for people on the move.
“Boston Public Market at Logan Airport will bring the experience of New England’s culinary landscape to new heights by offering its unique character and charm in the airport. Today, airports serve as a platform to launch culinary and consumer trends and we look forward to opening BPM to provide fresh, locally-sourced products for travelers from around the world to enjoy,” said Anthony Alessi, Vice President of Business Development, HMSHost.
Fairbanks International Airport Baggage Transport Conveyor Enhanced With Mod Drive™ System
Airports face a host of unique industry challenges, such as meeting efficiency regulations and seeking out the best maintenance practices to reduce costs and keep operations flowing. In today’s current economic climate, any potential cost savings can go a long way.
In 2019, Alaska’s Fairbanks International Airport (FAI) sought to modernize its equipment and operations. They were dissatisfied with the performance of the gearmotors on their baggage transport conveyors and began searching for new suppliers. Regal approached FAI with a solution that could improve equipment performance and simplify maintenance, with the added benefit of energy cost savings: the Hub City® MOD Drive™ system.
