Following the opening of Suvarnabhumi Airport in late September, GFA Corporation (Thailand) Ltd, which operates two combination food outlets each offering Coffee World, The Cream & Fudge Factory, and New York Deli under one roof in both Concourse B and Concourse F inside the terminal, has generated sales of more than 5.0 million baht in the first month. The sales will contribute to the further growth of GFA market share in the country, especially when Airports of Thailand has targeted that the new airport will accommodate some 42 million travellers at the end of the year.
According to Mr Fred Mouawad, Chairman & CEO of GFA Corporation (Thailand) Ltd, “We are very excited about the power of combining multiple brands under one roof. Our customers are very much enjoying the variety we offer under each brand with Coffee World focused on providing a wide range of hot and cold coffees, New York Deli offering fresh “made to order” sandwiches, salads and soups, and with The Cream & Fudge Factory offering Super Premium Ice-cream that can be mixed with a variety of toppings on a frozen marble slab. We have assembled high quality complimentary branded products in one store to provide a great customer experience.”
“In addition being at the airport gives our brands great international exposure. Today GFA has a strong presence in India, and is currently in 7 countries including Thailand. We are generating a tremendous amount of interest by prospective Master Franchisees. Last month we signed up a Master Franchisee for a province in China, and we are under very advanced discussions with a number of partners in other countries. We are very excited about our growth prospects,” Mr Fred added,
