John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK)’s Terminal 8 now houses six new small, local-, women- and minority-owned businesses. The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (PANYNJ), American Airlines and Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield (URW) Airports celebrated the opening of the newly minted T8 stores chosen as part of the URW Small Business Accelerator Program, which offers entrepreneurs flexible deal terms and small-format spaces to lower the barrier of entry into the airport market.
The new concepts include handmade perfume, jewelry and home decor brand Alchemy; plant-based skincare and haircare brand Beautiful Amore Skincare; health-focused and vegan/vegetarian-forward eatery Bevo’s Kitchen; hand-drawn illustrations and accessory store natchie; local honey brand and accessory shop HoneyGramz; and holistic naturopathic retailer Mother Earth Juice Bar.
