Aer Rianta International-Sardana JFK, the partnership between ARI and the Sardana Group, has been awarded a five-year contract to open a Runway Fashion store at Boston Logan International airport.

The new Runway Fashion store will open in early 2008 and will be located past security in terminal E at Boston Logan. It will sell a range of high-quality fashion products at competitive prices. The product selection will include established apparel brands such as Lacoste, Diesel, Liz Claiborne, Timberland, Guess Jeans and DKNY Jeans, as well as lifestyle labels from Oakley, Blue Marlin, Roxy, Quiksilver and Zoo York. Runway Fashion at Boston Logan will also mark the travel-retail debut of brands such as GEOX shoes and Illuminations. Adding to the airport shopping experience are jewellery concepts from Thomas Sabo, Misaki and Antica Murrina.

BAA Boston vice-president Mike Caro said: "We are pleased to offer international travellers the opportunity to purchase high-quality fashions and accessories in the Airmall with the addition of a new and spacious Runway Fashion store.”

Aer Rianta International-Sardana JFK president Bart Collins said: “We are honoured that we have been awarded the contract at Boston Logan which will allow us to further grow our North American operations by cementing the already successful relationship between the Sardana Group and Aer Rianta International. At Logan, we intend to replicate and improve on the success of our JFK operations, and look forward to building a strong and mutually beneficial relationship with BAA USA in the years to come. Terminal E at Logan offers an exclusive travel environment with a concentration of high-profile airlines; we are therefore pleased to offer the passengers of these airlines an exceptional shopping experience with a unique concentration of equally high-profile fashion brands.”
