Ottawa Airport issues RFP for indoor advertising concession

CANADA. Ottawa International Airport Authority is seeking a partner to operate its advertising concession inside the passenger terminal at Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport. The airport has issued an RFP and said it is looking for offers from “experienced out-of-home advertising and/or public relations firms” that are interested in operating the seven-year concession, which begins on 1 May 2015.

Ottawa Airport, which serves the Canadian capital, handles around 4.6 million passengers each year. It welcomes a roughly equal mix of business and leisure traffic, and is the gateway for the nation’s parliamentarians, visiting dignitaries and those doing business with the federal government.
