They also don’t want to reward the deal Ryan Coogler made  with Warner Bros.  How dare he maintain full creative control, first-dollar gross part…

AND NOW… They’re making another call for locally owned brands who are looking for store front space at the JFK airport!

The Benefit: They’re offering kiosk space which would normally cost your business tens of thousands to build out. Instead you provide your product, brand reps, and pay the expected fees. It still takes money to make money but this way is a little bit of a discount that I highly recommend that you take advantage of.

Items They’re Looking For: Accessories,Beauty,Gifts,Apparel, & Home Goods

Pro-Tips:

  • Also a plus if your business is DBE or ACDBE Certified (Airport Concessions Disadvantaged Business Enterprise).
