Port Authority of New York & New Jersey Avolta, the world’s biggest airport retailer, will significantly increase its estate in the United States through deals at John F. Kennedy Airport’s all-new $4.
2 billion Terminal 6—which will occupy the site of the former T6 and T7 when completed); and at Pittsburgh International Airport. At the New York hub, JFK Millennium Partners (JMP)—the consortium chosen by the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey (PANYNJ) to build and operate JFK T6—has selected the Avolta companies Hudson and Dufry to open multiple duty-free, travel convenience, and specialty retail stores. They will cover more than 28,000 square feet in a revamped 1.
2 million-square-foot state-of-the-art terminal that is set to open the first of its ten gates in early 2026. Meanwhile, as part of PIT’s $1.57 billion terminal modernization program, Hudson will expand by opening new stores across 8,000 square feet of retail space.
The move is thanks to a seven-year contract awarded by Allegheny County Airport Authority covering six new retail stores. In JFK T6, Hudson and Dufry will create what JMP claims will be some “first-to-airport” initiatives, activations, brands, and concepts. Key to it all is the presentation of New York’s five boroughs as a core part of the shopping experience.
