The Cork Airport Authority yesterday announced the winners of the tender process to operate shops, cafes and a bar at the new terminal.

The largest concession for a restaurant and a bar worth E100 million over 10 years, went to HMS Host (a subsidiary of Italian firm Autogrill which runs concession in more than 40 airports). The existing concession for food is held by the Kylemore group.
