Perth Airport seeks partners for 32 retail and dining outlets amid commercial upgrade

AUSTRALIA. Perth Airport is calling for retailers across food & beverage, travel essentials and speciality retail categories to bid on 32 locations across 4,000sq m of space in its terminals. These are part of a refurbishment and refresh of the customer offering at the Western Australian gateway.

Perth Airport Chief Commercial & Aviation Officer, Kate Holsgrove said that the airport is about to embark on a multi-billion-dollar private infrastructure development to deliver new terminal facilities, a new parallel runway, two new multi-storey car parks and an airport hotel, which will change the face of Perth Airport over the next decade.

“Along with all the new development and terminal infrastructure we will also be upgrading the current terminals to ensure we are catering for our growing passenger numbers.

“Perth Airport recorded more than 16.1 million passengers in FY24, and we are still seeing more of our airline partners continue to either add or expand their services into Perth.

“To ensure we have the best offerings for our growing passenger base we will be refurbishing retail precincts across our terminals to ensure we are optimising the customer experience.

“Our Commercial team is looking to engage with potential partners via a Request for Proposals programme for up to 32 sites totalling approximately 4000sq m across Perth Airport’s four terminals – T1, T2, T3 and T4.”

Stage 1 features 22 opportunities with Stage 2 Request for Proposals (RFP)  to be released early next year.
