Travel Hospitality Services' Gateway ConceptSM
The original “gateway” hospitality provider
A decade and a half ago, Delaware North took a novel approach to the business of providing travel hospitality in airports. The approach involved much more than simply managing airport concessions. We called it the Gateway ConceptSM and it revolutionized the food, beverage and retail offerings that we have come to expect when we travel.
Before the Gateway ConceptSM, terminals were all the same. Delaware North saw this as an opportunity to transform them into portals that allow travelers to catch a glimpse of the sights, sounds and tastes awaiting them outside. Our travel hospitality management professionals accomplish this by:
- Incorporating strong, unique local and regional brands into the food, beverage and retail mix
- Featuring the products of businesses native to the area
- Celebrating the city’s culture in every way that we can
We created the Gateway ConceptSM and we have been working diligently to expand our portfolio by adding the most innovative, compelling brands from around the world.
From famous national brands – such as Sports Illustrated, Travel Channel and Food Network – to favorite regional names such as Anchor Bar, Bully Hill Vineyards and Blue Bell Ice Cream, Delaware North raises the travel experience to new levels at airports and travel plazas across the United States.
