The Ontario International Airport Authority (OIAA) Board of Commissioners has approved a 10-year concession agreement for a new duty-free retail outlet at Ontario International Airport in Southern California.
3Sixty Duty Free and More Inc. will open the new Terminal 2 retail outlet in July 2022.
3Sixty operates in five continents and already has retail outlets at major US airports such as Dallas-Fort Worth, Newark and Orlando.
Alan D. Wapner, President of the OIAA Board, said:The Board of Commissioners is pleased to award this concession agreement to 3Sixty, with its extensive network of partners and diverse suppliers and the capabilities needed to provide the high-profile brands and customer experiences that Ontario travelers demand. This new concession agreement is further recognition of ONT's emergence as a global gateway, providing a world-class experience for our loyal customers.
Despite the global pandemic, Ontario International Airport continues to expand its scheduled flights and destinations. The airport has experienced one of the fastest COVID-19 recovery rates among US airports, with passenger volumes currently near pre-pandemic levels.
The addition of a core duty free store will make Ontario International Airport one of just two Southern Californian international airports to operate a duty-free concession.
This is a major step forward in the expansion of our retail options at ONT. We are delighted to welcome 360 Duty Free to be part of the ONT family, and we look forward to a long and mutually beneficial partnership as we continue to grow and develop our business and passenger numbers. As our international traffic and destinations continues to grow, the addition of a world-class duty-free outlet will enhance the width and breadth of our retail offerings and add significant value to our customer experience.
