Stellar Partners this week announced an agreement with digital media company BuzzFeed to bring BuzzFeed branded convenience stores to U.S. airports.
The first two BuzzFeed stores will open this spring in LaGuardia Airport’s (LGA) Terminal C.
“We are incredibly proud of this collaboration to develop exciting retail stores that bring the power of BuzzFeed news and entertainment to airports nationwide,” said Stellar CEO Padraig Drennan. “Stellar’s retail expertise combined with BuzzFeed’s trendsetting appeal will help redefine newsstands and convenience for the modern traveler.”
The BuzzFeed brands stores will offer travel supplies, snacks, magazines, beauty and lifestyle items, and more while speeding through self-checkout. While travelers are browsing, they will be able to see the latest news and entertainment provided by BuzzFeed on monitors throughout the terminal stores. The stores will also support local businesses and carry products for purchase that will vary by region.
These locations are set to be the latest addition of Stellar’s portfolio of news convenience stores across 21 U.S. airports.
