Avolta said its companies Hudson and Dufry were awarded a contract to operate duty-free and other retail stores in terminal six of New York City's John F. Kennedy International Airport.
The Swiss travel-retail group said it has a new 18-year contract and that the airport's terminal is set to open in early 2026.
Chief Executive Xavier Rossinyol said the contract was the company's largest so far this year in North America.
Avolta didn't disclose financial details of the new contract, but confirmed its medium-term targets and reaffirmed its positive outlook after the first nine months of the year.
