The XpresSpa Group this week announced it is further expanding its operations outside the United States with the opening of XpresSpa locations at Istanbul Airport (IST) in Turkey beginning September 2022. This is the first of five new XpresSpa locations expected to open at IST.
Scott Milford, XpresSpa CEO, said the expansion will enable the company to take advantage of the rapid growth of travel between Europe, Asia and the rest of the world even as XpresSpa expands its offerings to include XpresCheck testing and its Treat mobile-health platform and services.
“The addition of these new locations in Turkey as well as our expected expansion into Abu Dhabi support our continued effort to grow in markets that are favorable to our operating model and the unique set of products and services we offer to people on the go,” Mitford added. “We have built strong brand awareness in the US and plan on doing the same internationally. This expansion advances our efforts along those lines.”
XpresSpa currently operates six locations outside the U.S., three in Dubai International Airport in the United Arab Emirates and three in Schiphol Amsterdam Airport in the Netherlands. In 2023, the Company expects to leverage its existing footprint in Gulf Cooperation Council countries opening additional operations in Abu Dhabi and across the region.
