US. The City of San Antonio Aviation Department has issued three requests for proposals (RFPs) for concessions at San Antonio International Airport.
The first RFP offers three separate concession opportunities in the airport’s new Terminal B, which is under construction and due to replace Terminal 2 in November 2010.
A 787sq ft bookstore, a 962sq ft Texas-themed souvenir, apparel and merchandise outlet and a 457sq ft open speciality retail store are offered separately as part of the proposal, although respondents are open to submit proposals for more than one location.
The city has set out the minimum annual guarantee (MAG) it expects to receive for each of the three spaces in the first year of each lease: US$41,000-US$65,000 for the bookstore, US$134,000-US$214,000 for the souvenir outlet and US$34,000-US$54,000 for the speciality store. Any proposals which do not fall within the acceptable MAG range will not be considered.
The second RFP concerns the leasing and operation of news and gifts concessions in Terminals 1 and B. There are six spaces on offer, three in each of the terminals, with retail spaces ranging from 663sq ft to 1,351sq ft. One of the locations in Terminal B may also incorporate a café as part of the tender.
The city has not stipulated any MAG ranges within the news and gifts RFP.
