Greggs to Open First Overseas Store at Tenerife South Airport
British bakery chain Greggs is launching its first international outlet at Tenerife South Airport later this month, marking the company's return to overseas operations since a brief venture in Belgium in 2008.
The new shop, located in the airport's international departures area, will offer Greggs' signature range of bakes, rolls, sweet treats and freshly made sandwiches. To appeal to local preferences, the breakfast menu will include a Spanish omelette roll served alongside freshly squeezed orange juice, prepared and bottled daily in-store for what the company describes as a "refreshing taste of island life." The outlet will also provide seating for up to 92 customers, allowing travelers a comfortable spot to enjoy affordable fare before departure.
Tenerife South Airport handles around 13 million passengers annually, with approximately half traveling to and from the UK. Greggs selected the site as an ideal testing ground for international expansion, targeting British holidaymakers seeking familiar, budget-friendly options to cap off their trips.
The opening comes in partnership with Lagardere Travel Retail, which manages more than 5,000 stores across airports, railway stations...
