HMSHost Corp. is helping keep travelers through Edmonton International (YEG) caffeinated by opening a remodeled pre-security Tim Hortons location that will be open 24 hours a day.
“With this major remodel of the Edmonton International arrivals location, Tim Hortons will continue to woo travelers, as well as airport and airline employees with their fresh-brewed, fresh-baked style,” says Kent Vanden Oever, vice president of business development at HMSHost. “We are excited to partner with Tim Hortons once again at Edmonton International Airport to continue offering great dining options to travelers, employees and airport visitors.”
The location will serve the brand’s premium coffee and full menu of sandwiches and breakfast items, including Tim Hortons’ donuts.
“Whether you’re a passenger setting off on a business trip or a vacation, an airport worker at the start of a busy day or a family eagerly awaiting a loved one, at our airport, Tim Hortons is here to welcome you home,” says Tom Ruth, president and CEO of YEG. “Tim Hortons is a Canadian icon, and we’re delighted to see it reopen at our airport even bigger and better than ever.”
The reopened pre-security location, one of two Tim Hortons in the airport, features a new look that the concept has been incorporating over the past year.
“We are thrilled to bring a fresh look to this location in Edmonton and excited for our guests to experience the new Tim Hortons look,” says Christine Andrade, manager of business development for Tim Hortons. “New and renovated Tim Hortons restaurants across the chain this year will incorporate the company’s new interior and exterior look and design, which was introduced earlier last year. With the grand reopening of this popular Edmonton International Airport location, guests can expect comfortable booth seating, warm pendant lighting and interior color scheme, new wooden bakery displays and communal table.”
