The selected proposer must create dining concepts that reflect Sacramento's identity as "America's Farm-to-Fork Capital", showcasing local and regional beverages and dishes using fresh, seasonal, and sustainable ingredients. Key objectives include providing diverse menu options at fair price points, supporting local culinary practices, and aligning with the airport's mission of being "the most loved airport". Proposers will be evaluated on their ability to create a customer-centric experience that meets the airport's sustainability goals.

The airport has established specific enterprise participation goals, including an Airport Concessions Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (ACDBE) goal of 15% and a Small Business goal of 30% for food and beverage concessions. Proposers must submit a comprehensive proposal package, including a $5,000 proposal deposit, business organization summary, financial references, non-collusion declaration, labor peace policy form, and financial statements. The financial structure includes a percentage rent model starting at 5% for food and beverage sales (increasing to 10% after six months) and 16% for retail sales, with additional fees including a 0.3% Merchant Association Program (MAP) fee and a 0.3% Common Area Maintenance (CAM) charge. The pro forma financial projections indicate potential gross revenues starting at $1,400,000 in 2025 and growing to $1,785,424 by 2035, with an initial capital investment estimated at $1,450,000 for the concession space. The airport emphasizes compliance with environmental sustainability goals, including reducing waste, energy consumption, and greenhouse gas emissions, making this an opportunity for operators committed to innovative, locally-focused food service concepts.
