INTERNATIONAL.Welcome to The FAB eZine, in which we present highlights of The Airport Food & Beverage (FAB) + Hospitality Conference & Awards, which took place in Ontario, California on 25-26 June.
The two-day conference delivered many talking points, from the costs of doing business and the concessions model to diversity, sustainability, digitalisation, innovation and the latest consumer trends. We present session by session coverage in these pages.
The FAB Awards – drawn from over 300 entries this year – provided an emotional conclusion to the event at a glittering Gala Evening provided by our wonderful hosts at Ontario International Airport.
The high calibre of winners and short-listed entries told an impressive story about the diversity and excellence of offer in the travel dining and hospitality business. Full details appear in these pages, alongside comments from the judging panel.
We also salute front line and back of house staff in our FAB Superstars Awards, and present picture galleries of the superb social events, which helped to make this year’s FAB one of the most memorable yet.
We hope you enjoy this special edition.
