Glasgow Airport is set to benefit from a £3.7 million investment aimed at enhancing the passenger experience with a range of new food and retail offerings.

Details on Glasgow Airport’s retail investment 

The funding, provided by various retailers, will see the arrival of two new restaurants, upgrades to existing outlets both airside and landside, and improvements to the main departure lounge. The developments will broaden the choice available to passengers and modernise facilities.

Work is already underway and will be completed over the coming months. Highlights include:

  • Sanford’s American Diner, replacing Frankie & Benny’s, opening in August with a menu of milkshakes, pizza, burgers and more

  • Primo Volo, an Italian café bar serving pasta, ciabatta sandwiches and spritz cocktails, due to open in July

  • Enhancements to Bird & Signet bar and kitchen

  • Relocation of the Stack & Still pancake unit

  • New Accessorise and Travelex outlets

Sanford’s American Diner, operated by travel hospitality group TRGC, is aimed at families and will offer a fun, relaxed dining option. Primo Volo will provide a modern take on Italian cuisine in the departure lounge.

Tom Hack, Group Retail Director at AGS Airports, said: “Our continued investment in Glasgow Airport’s retail and passenger experience reflects our commitment to providing an excellent journey for all travellers. We are excited to see these improvements take shape over the coming months, starting with the refurbishment of Boots.”

The project forms part of a wider terminal transformation plan, which also includes upgrades to airfield infrastructure and sustainability measures, ensuring the airport is prepared for future growth and demand.
