US retailer The Paradies Shops has revealed the concepts it will implement at Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson airport in the autumn. The operator was awarded in May 13 concessions spread between the landside Atrium area and airside concourses A and B, all of which are newly constructed stores.

In the Atrium, Paradies will open a Drugs & More pharmacy, featuring an AeroClinic offering health screenings and immunisations; a Brighton Collections fashion and accessories outlet; a Brooks Brothers fashion store; a Georgia Aquarium destination and souvenir shop; and a Centennial Park TravelMart news and convenience store.

Concourse A will feature two CNBC News Atlanta news and charging outlets; a Vera Bradley luggage shop; a New York Times Books & News concept; a Newbeat Atlanta news centre; an Atlanta.net gifts and souvenirs store; and a Techshowcase electronics outlet. Finally, at Concourse B the retailer will operate a dedicated Lacoste boutique offering fashion and accessories, leathergoods and fragrances.

The Paradies Shops president and CEO Gregg Paradies said: “The Paradies Shops was founded in Atlanta over 48 years ago, and we greatly appreciate the opportunity to operate world class stores in our hometown at the world’s busiest airport. With our dedication to first-class service in everything we do, we are committed to improving the travelers’ experience, which is even more important as traveling becomes more challenging.”
