“The new commercial concept will offer passengers a modern, diverse, localized and exciting new shopping and food & beverage experience. It will be characterized by modern architecture and design, with a wide range of commercial offerings, colours, a friendly environment and everything else you expect to find at an Indonesian Airport.

BID BACKGROUND
As revealed by The Moodie Report, Indian airport group GVK recently signed a contract with the Indonesian government airport operator to manage its non-aeronautical commercial operations. The airport (also known as Bali Denpasar International), is the country’s second-busiest.
The scope includes both the existing terminals and the new international terminal which is currently under construction and expected to open in the third quarter of 2013 with a major make-over.
At the time of its appointment last November, GVK Power & Infrastructure Vice Chairman GV Sanjay Reddy said: “Retail, F&B and duty free are significant components of passenger experience at any airport. We are very excited by the opportunity to provide passengers at the Denpasar Airport in Bali a truly world-class shopping experience, across brands, product variety and price points.”
