PERU. Retail Services, which specialises in food & beverage and retail operations at airports in Latin America, recently extended its presence with a trio of openings in the new terminal at Lima Jorge Chávez International Airport.
The company’s Retail Services Peru division manages three outlets: a La Bonbonniere flagship and Order & Go concept; Copper Bar; plus nature-inspired travel retail concept Livingstone Travel & Adventure.
The largest location in the company’s network at 550sq m, La Bonbonniere has been present at the airport since 2010; this latest location features a refreshed look and feel created for the new terminal.
Designed in an open plaza style, La Bonbonniere features a central live kitchen that brings the culinary process to life, allowing guests to watch chefs prepare some of Peru’s famous dishes, including the celebrated Ceviche and Lomo Saltado, reimagined by Chef Coque Ossio, brand ambassador for Marca Perú (Brand Peru, an initiative of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism of Peru with companies to promote national products).
The restaurant also introduces expanded seating capacity and has been integrated into Priority Pass and Lounge Key loyalty programmes.
Complementing the main restaurant is the Order & Go Premium corner, a fast-track option for passengers with limited time. The grab-and-go offer features freshly prepared sandwiches and light meals displayed in a new visual merchandising concept designed to highlight freshness, craftsmanship and local identity.
“La Bonbonniere at Jorge Chávez is more than a restaurant – it’s a place to exhale,” said General Manager Alejando Serra Sarria.
“We wanted to create a space that feels welcoming and distinctly Peruvian, with an atmosphere that balances efficiency and emotion. The live kitchen, the Provençal plaza layout and the new Order & Go corner all work together to deliver that vision.”
Retail Services Peru said the new venue represents the best of its design and operational capabilities to date – combining “architectural character, culinary heritage and airport efficiency in one seamless experience”.
Retail Services Peru has also unveiled Copper Bar, a striking new destination at the heart of the international departures concourse.
Positioned in the central flow of passenger movement with panoramic views of the runway, the 177sq m Copper Bar is conceived as an “architectural centrepiece”, said the company – “a contemporary space elevated by an aerial visual structure that makes it a focal point of the terminal’s design narrative”.
The concept’s branding and architectural identity draw inspiration from copper, Peru’s most emblematic mineral and one of its major exports. The space features sculptural installations made of solid copper elements, each piece weighing several tons and shaped into abstract Andean lines, evoking the craftsmanship of ancient Inca goldsmiths.
The metal also plays a central role in the creation of Peru’s national spirit – Pisco, a distillate that carries the country’s Denomination of Origin – which is traditionally produced in copper stills.
“Copper is a symbol of transformation and connection – it’s been part of our heritage for centuries, from the Inca artisans to the Pisco distillers of today. Now, it becomes part of our travellers’ experience,” said Serra Sarria.
The bar’s mixology programme is designed by renowned mixologist Raúl Arcayo (Creative Director) and Juan José Benítez (Cocktail Chef). The menu features signature cocktails crafted exclusively with Peruvian distilled spirits sourced from the country’s diverse regions – from coastal piscos to Amazonian infusions and high-Andean herbal liqueurs.
A highlight of the offer is the craft beer from the Sacred Valley of Cusco, served on tap in traditional chop glasses – a nod to Peru’s growing artisanal brewing culture.
To complement the bar offer, Copper also operates a ventless kitchen equipped with state-of-the-art cooking technology, serving Peruvian small plates and signature dishes.
“With Copper, we wanted to create something truly iconic – not just another airport bar,” added Serra Sarria. “It’s a place where design, culture and mixology meet to celebrate Peru’s identity in a modern way. Every detail, from the copper sculptures to the ingredients in each cocktail, tells a story.”
The trio of units is rounded out by Livingstone Travel & Adventure, a nature-inspired travel retail concept in the domestic departures area. Updated for the new terminal, this retail brand has featured at the airport since 2013.
The 208sq m store targets the adventure traveller with a range of over 3,500 SKUs spanning outerwear, travel apparel, thermal bottles, backpacks, accessories and adventure gear.
The retailer said: “Visually, Livingstone is one of the most striking retail spaces in the terminal. Its iconic design features a sculptural tree whose roots and branches rise through the ceiling, symbolising the connection between people and nature.
“Surrounding wall graphics represent the three main regions of Peru – Coast, Andes and Amazon – creating an immersive storytelling environment that expresses a strong sense of place rooted in Peru’s natural diversity and cultural identity.”
“Livingstone is not just a store, it’s a gateway to adventure,” said Serra Sarria. “We wanted to design a retail space that connects emotionally with travellers, evoking the feeling of setting off on a journey into Peru’s landscapes. It’s about practicality, but also inspiration.”
In its latest iteration, Livingstone has extended its offer to feature parkas, pants, insulated bottles, carry-on backpacks, hats and caps – items that Retail Services noted have become favourites among both domestic and international passengers.
“Recent months have seen strong growth in outdoor apparel and accessories, two categories that have exceeded expectations and reaffirmed the brand’s focus on comfort, authenticity and local connection,” it noted.
Retail Services highlighted the concept’s design language rooted in sustainability and sense of place, which it said showed how “thoughtful retail design can transform the airport experience into a memorable part of the journey”.
“Our goal was to make travellers feel that, even before take-off, they’ve already begun their adventure,” the company added.
