DUNKIN’ DONUTS OPENS TWO OUTLETS AT LPIA

 

Nassau, March 16, 2009 —This month, the Lynden Pindling International Airport will get a double shot of espresso as Dunkin’ Donuts opens two locations at the airport. Bahamas QSR Limited, a subsidiary of the Myers Group of Companies, operates the coffee giant’s Bahamian franchise. The company finalized contract agreements with the Nassau Airport Development Company in January. 

 

The brand is the #1 retailer of hot and iced regular coffee-by-the-cup in America, and the largest coffee and baked goods chain in the world.  In addition to the well-known coffees, all locations at LPIA will serve the brand’s most popular signature beverages like the Dunkaccino, Turbo, Lite and White Hot Chocolate.  “We are super excited to have the sandwiches Dunkin’ Donuts aficionados will ask for such as the Waffle Breakfast Sandwich and the variety of Flatbread Sandwiches,� commented Tracey Cash, marketing director for Dunkin’ Donuts.

 

“We are happy to have been awarded the contract and to have this opportunity to add Dunkin’ Donuts to the airport experience� said Douglas Sawyer, Vice President and Managing Director of the Myers Group.  The popular brand, now located in the US Departures Lounge, will open a second store this week in the Domestic/International Terminal.

 

“NAD is delighted to welcome Dunkin’ Donuts into the airport family� said John Spinks, Vice President, Commercial Development for NAD.  The Dunkin’ Donuts brand is known worldwide with over 7,900 restaurants in 30 countries.  “This is an exciting first step towards increasing and improving the food & beverage options at the airport,� continued Spinks.

 

Bahamas QSR Limited is one of many local companies expanding their operations to include locations at LPIA. Travelers and airport workers can look forward to additional food and beverage outlets once the airport redevelopment is complete.
