WH Smith North America has launched three new retail concepts in Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC)’s Concourse B. The concessionaire has opened Travel+Right, a health and wellness-focused market (in partnership with brand owner and operator Airport Retail Group, LLC); Weller Book Works, an airport location of the Salt Lake City-based bookstore brand that’s been open since 1929; as well as an airport location of Salt Lake City-based sporting apparel and accessories brand Cotopaxi.
“These stores represent what we strive for as a company, which is a deep understanding of the traveler’s needs in each distinct market, as well as highlighting the local businesses that are essential to these cities,” said Toby Keir, CEO of WH Smith North America. “We are grateful to the team at SLC and all our partners who helped bring these stores to life. We look forward to seeing what the future holds for these fruitful partnerships.”
“We are thrilled to be opening our first Travel+Right travel essentials store in SLC’s beautiful new concourse B with our partner WHSmith North America,” added Pady Regnier, founder of Airport Retail Group, Inc. “Travel+Right features local and regional grab and go food, snacks and gifts, as well as an opportunity for travelers and locals to participate in a Giveback program benefitting the Utah Food Bank.”
