The Port of Portland Commission has awarded SSP America a 10-year contract to develop and operate Kenny & Zuke’s Delicatessen & Market in Concourse C of Portland International (PDX).
SSP took the local concept and combined it with a market specifically for the airport. The 3,000-square-foot location will feature artisan food products, wines and craft beers.
“SSP America is proud to be partnering with Kenny & Zuke’s Delicatessen and to showcase a taste of the Pacific Northwest’s most celebrated food and drink at Portland International,” says Michael Svagdis, SSP America’s CEO. “We are always proud to bring exceptional local brands to the airport’s global stage, and the food here is worthy of the world’s attention. This is a win for all—for Portland International, the Portland community, these local culinary heroes and the nearly 17 million annual travelers to PDX.”
The offerings will include, bagels, local chocolates, chutneys, snacks, condiments, candies, cheeses, jams, jellies and honey. Beers and wines from the region also will be available.
“Kenny & Zuke’s is so thrilled to be opening our location at Portland International Airport this coming fall,” says Ken Gordon, owner and chef of Kenny & Zukes. “We think we can be a tremendous addition to PDX as the Pacific Northwest’s best artisan delicatessen.”
