The Salt Lake City International Airport has announced 12 additional restaurants and retail shops planned for phase 3, the concourse B extension, slated to open in fall 2024.

Travelers will also be able to visit a mix of new national and local outlets like Cotopaxi; iStore Express, an Apple-licensed digital shop; Relay, a travel convenience store; Travel Right, another convenience option; The Canyon, a gift shop; and Salt Lake City’s own Weller Book Works.

“The new airport has received national accolades for our concessions program,” said Bill Wyatt, executive director, Salt Lake City Department of Airports. “These unique restaurants and shops are expected to garner five-star reviews as well.”

When selecting the concessions for the New SLC Phase 3, airport officials said they looked for a mix of local, regional and national brands, while taking into consideration pricing, hours of operation and service standards.

Requirements for the six food and beverage locations included three full-service restaurants with alcohol service, a local/national fast-food or gourmet/specialty burger brand, a quick-serve restaurant and a dedicated full-service coffee concept. For the six specialty retail/news and gift locations, as well as the food and beverage options, street pricing is also a requirement.

The New SLC Phase 3 encompasses a nine-gate extension of Concourse B to the east. The first five gates will open in fall 2024, followed by four gates in fall 2025.

Many of the businesses selected for Phase 3 are ACDBE-certified (Airport Concessions Disadvantaged Business Enterprise).
