Brief

The Board of Airport Commissioners has referred a concession agreement involving Greater Than DD LLC, Areas LAX T4 JV LLC, Host International Inc., and Hudson Group Retail LLC to the Trade, Travel, and Tourism Committee. The agreement covers retail and food service operations at Los Angeles International Airport's Terminal 4. The file was introduced May 20, 2026, and remains pending committee review.

Full summary

The Board of Airport Commissioners is asking the City Council to approve four individual 12-year concession agreements, each carrying a 3-year extension option, with Greater Than DD LLC, Areas LAX T4 JV LLC, Host International Inc., and Hudson Group (HG) Retail LLC. The agreements grant these companies the rights to develop, manage, and operate food, beverage, and retail concessions in Terminal 4 at Los Angeles International Airport. The Board approved the agreements at its May 14, 2026 meeting by Resolution 28377, which also authorized the Los Angeles World Airports Chief Executive Officer to execute the contracts. The Board notes there is no impact to the City's General Fund. The Council is asked to take three specific actions: confirm that the agreements are exempt from California Environmental Quality Act review under local CEQA guidelines, approve the award of the concession agreements to the four vendors, and concur with the Board's authorization for the LAWA CEO to sign the contracts. The file was submitted to the City Council on May 20, 2026, and referred the following day to the Trade, Travel, and Tourism Committee, where it currently sits pending review. No further committee or Council action has been recorded. The file expires May 20, 2028.
