In the past two months, Delaware North has opened five of its eight planned food service concepts at Auckland Airport in New Zealand. The company recently debuted 400 Gradi, Better Burger and Mexico, to go along with the August openings of Best Ugly Bagels and Orleans Chicken & Waffles.
Here is an overview of the new concepts:
Three additional concepts – Tea Garden by Dilmah, Blue Marble Lane and Oma Artisan Bakery & Café – are set to open in the coming months. And a second location of Best Ugly Bagels is in the works.
