Capital investments and airport infrastructure improvements provide vital context for the development of the Travel Retail industry. Airports have come to depend on non-aeronautical revenues and in many cases, terminal expansions include square footage attributed to retail and F&B concessions. Our latest SPARK Airport Update is up and covers who is expanding and growing during COVID-19. #travelretail #airports #airportoperations #airportretail #development #expansion https://www.sparkgroupinc.com/airport-update-august-2020/

Two more staff started work today! Two more flags planted on that shop floor saying this is our space and we will get the job done! Go team SPARK!

What an amazing day! Arrived at the office to find out a finalist has been approved, a few hours later the Offer of Employment was accepted. Welcome to the SPARK team dear Holly and your assignment to Bulgari Fragrances, we are fortunate to have you.

Meeting with the YVR team on their midnight shift, it is so inspiring to see professionalism, courage and team spirit in these difficult times.

Happy Canada Day to our staff, friends and peers! You make this place called Canada - AMAZING!!! As a first generation Canadian, I am so thankful to my parents who chose this wonderful country. I am equally thankful to Canada for accepting two particular refugees in the 1940’s who later found each other and became my parents. I am forever grateful to call this country HOME. What a privilege.

Our dress code has always been all black and business smart. Who would have guessed that we would be adding masks and gloves to our look - it’s a go!

A big shout out to Jessie, our first BA to be returning to the shop floor. This is great news!!!
