Heinemann Austria said: “The addition of the regional Styrian market area has met with a great response, which is why an even greater focus will be placed on regionality in the future, so that travellers at Graz Airport can take a piece of Austria or Styria with them to their destination country.”

Heinemann Austria Managing Director Roman Koch commented: “We are delighted that we will be continuing our long-standing, trusting partnership with Graz Airport. We have grown together since 2005 and have stood together in challenging times. We will continue to be a valuable travel companion for passengers at Graz Airport and excite them with our assortment and our impressive employees.”
