The investment, funded by several retailers, will see the introduction of two new restaurants, upgrades to existing retail units (both airside and landside), and improvements to the departure lounge. These developments will provide passengers with a wider selection of dining and shopping options.

Work is already underway and is scheduled to be completed over the coming months. Key projects include:

• A new Sanford's American Diner, operated by TRGC.

• Enhancements to the existing Bird and Signet bar and kitchen.

• The relocation of the Stack & Still pancake unit.

• The opening of a new Accessorize store and Travelex unit.

Tom Hack, Group Retail Director at AGS Airports, said: "Our continued investment in Glasgow Airport's retail and passenger experience reflects our commitment to providing an excellent journey for all travellers. We are excited to see these improvements take shape over the coming months, starting with the refurbishment of Boots. The upgrades, which include enhancements to both airside and landside retail units as well as the departure lounge, will ensure passengers have access to modern, high-quality facilities while passing through the airport."

The investment is part of a broader development programme that includes a comprehensive transformation of Glasgow Airport's main terminal building, with the goal of delivering best-in-class operational and retail facilities for passengers. The programme will also allocate investment to airfield infrastructure and energy efficiency initiatives.
