Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) and concessions operator Marshall Retail Group (MRG) have announced plans to open an airport location of nonprofit sustainable urban farm Bonton Farms in Terminal A. The Southwest Dallas-based organization will offer travelers a selection of its signature homemade jellies, jams, sauces and farm-fresh goods, as well as products from other local Fort Worth-based businesses including Sons Coffee, grab-and-go sandwiches from Lettuce Cook and honey-influenced treats from Pearl Honey Spreads. The store will open in 2026 as part of the airport’s Terminal A expansion DFW Forward project.
“We are thrilled to award this exciting new contract to MRG and Bonton Farms as part of our ongoing effort to expand DFW’s world-class shopping and dining options,” said Ken Buchanan, DFW’s executive vice president of revenue management and customer experience. “This partnership underscores our commitment to supporting small, diverse, and locally rooted businesses — enabling them to tap into the airport’s economic growth as we expand our concessions footprint.”
“We are deeply grateful for this groundbreaking partnership with WHSmith and DFW Airport,” added Bonton Farms president Gabrielle Madison. “This opportunity is transformative not only for our organization but also for the Bonton community. For many residents, this may be their first connection with the airport — whether through new employment opportunities or even, one day, becoming concession vendors themselves.Together, we’re paving a path for greater possibilities and growth. It’s an honor to share Bonton’s unique products and mission with a global audience, showcasing the heart of our community to travelers from around the world.”
