Background:The Augusta Regional Airport (AGS) is requesting a 24-month contract extension for the Airport’s concessionaire, Sterling Restaurant & Retail Group, LLC. Sterling provides two small restaurants and a merchandise shop at AGS. Their current agreement is set to expire on June 2, 2021. Airport concessionaire agreements are typically based on percentage of gross revenue and/or minimum annual guarantee (MAG). The global pandemic has been particularly devastating on the travel/transportation and food service industries. In the current environment, Airport concessionaires have experienced massive losses. A significant number of US Airports have extended rent reliefs, payment abatements, and various other forms of assistance to keep Airport concessionaires afloat. Moreover, it is literally impossible for both current and new entrants to project near term revenue and business activity. This significant downturn and uncertainty (when recovery will occur) has precipitated moratoriums on new concession contracts at many US Airports (e.g., Atlanta, Houston, Anchorage, etc.). Analysis:These challenges are further exacerbated at small Airports such as AGS. Unlike larger Airports that typically have master concessionaire agreements managed by national corporations, smaller Airports such as AGS are typically dependent on smaller organizations or sole proprietorships for these services. These small businesses generally are even more financially fragile. AGS strongly supports competitive processes for these types of services. However, management assesses it would be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to solicit another Airport concessionaire at this point. Moreover, AGS staff is unaware of any US Airports that have initiated new concessionaire Cover Memo Item # 4 agreements since the onset of the Pandemic. The Airport is requesting the Augusta Commission extend our current concessionaire, Sterling Restaurant & Retail Group, LLC, for a period of 24 months to June 2023. We are hopeful this extended period would provide a bit more clarity in terms Airport/aviation sector recovery and stabilization. Financial Impact:2021 budgeted revenue - $90,000 Alternatives:To Deny Recommendation:Augusta Aviation Commission recommends approval.
