Preparing for lift off: doubling down on our vending offering for airports

At Broderick’s we’re proud to support a range of businesses, especially our growing portfolio of airports across the country. In addition to our contract with the MAG group, at Manchester and Stansted airports, we’ve also secured long term partnerships as the around-the-clock refreshments provider for Liverpool John Lennon Airport and Birmingham Airport. This means our vending machines will serve the 79 million people who go through all four airports’ doors every year.

As part of the Liverpool contract renewal, we’ve added further machines across the facility, bringing the machine count to 21 to serve the 4.5 million passengers who head through the airport every year.

Birmingham Airport, which sees an annual footfall of 11 million, will be benefitting from another five years of the Broderick’s vending experience in its long-term contract renewal.

Why are we a winning refreshments solution for airports?  It’s plane and simple!

It’s our approach to innovation that make us a high-performance tool for airports across the country.  We’re not only vending specialists, but insights and engagement experts.

With our Pay4Vend app, we provide real time data into brands’ performance to drive sales, engagement and loyalty by giving our clients sales and promotional plans that perform based on very real insights.

Our team of analysts crunch the data to offer invaluable insights that allows product ranges stocked in machines to be tailored right down to gate level.  For example, gates flying to popular family holiday destinations are up-stocked with firm favourites such as fruit juices and seasonal products like Easter eggs, whilst at long-haul gates Broderick’s forward-thinking range of protein rich snacks prove popular, with brands including MyProtein and Huel.

Our strategy is two-fold: service and innovation. With our service backed by automation: we take immense pride in keeping close to what’s happening in the local area, so airports are always prepared for periods of higher demand.  Our nebular system allows us to see the lines that need stocking up to serve peaks such summer holidays, or even calendar events like major football matches – with products tailored to travelling football fans’ preferences – to ensuring its vending experience is entirely frictionless by offering preferred ways to pay.

Working with major brands like Coca Cola and Redbull, alongside exciting emerging brands, Broderick’s supports brand promotions with high impact advertising on our big screen vending machines.

 

We’re so pleased to see our airport contracts delivering real value at every level. Our aim is to keep travellers and staff refreshed whilst supporting airports’ business objectives. We’re excited to see business fly for our partners through the upcoming busy seasons.
