ARE is an airport food and beverage operator with annualised sales of A$200m ($130.5m) from 62 outlets across seven Australian airports.
The transaction is expected to be completed by the end of June 2024. The acquisition will see SSP Group adding a diverse portfolio of local, national, international and chef-inspired brands to its operations.
