Hill Aviation senior vice-president Steven Morris said: “Through the Hill team’s familiarity with LAWA and history of working with airports to maximise their returns on investment, we will drive opportunities for revenue for concessionaires, as well as the city and support small businesses in southern California.
“These projects are critical to LAWA’s post-pandemic operations and also further the city’s reputation as a leader in developing local businesses.”
