Concessions Design Criteria Manual Summary

This Concessions Design Criteria Manual is issued by the Greater Orlando Aviation Authority (GOAA) for the North Terminal Complex (NTC) Concessions Package 11, a Food and Beverage Concession opportunity at Orlando International Airport in Florida. The solicitation seeks proposals for a 1,873 square foot gourmet coffee concept located in Airside 2, designed to provide freshly-brewed hot and cold beverages, pre-packaged snacks, sandwiches, salads, and breakfast items with emphasis on sustainability and dietary inclusivity. The concession must offer quick service to travelers with menu items covering all day parts, including gluten-free and vegetarian options. A pre-proposal meeting is scheduled for February 7, 2025, with proposals due by May 2, 2025. The contract structure includes a 10-year lease term with a targeted opening date of June 2026.

Proposers must make a minimum initial improvement investment of $600 per square foot for food service, $200 per square foot for seating, and $500 per square foot for retail spaces. The initial Minimum Annual Concession Fee is set at $543,000, with proposers required to submit a percentage of gross receipts for food and non-alcoholic beverage sales with a minimum of 10%. A significant Airport Concessions Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (ACDBE) participation goal of 30% of total anticipated concession revenues is required. The Greater Orlando Aviation Authority has established award limitations preventing any single proposer from being awarded more than 20% of the food and beverage program based on square footage. Evaluation criteria include ACDBE participation, customer service, demonstrated experience, concepts and menu quality, concession improvements, and financial return to the Aviation Authority.
