The openings mark Avolta’s first entry into Venice Airport and build on the company’s recent expansion in Veneto, following new openings at Verona Valerio Catullo Airport, both managed by SAVE Group.
Massimiliano Santoro, CEO Italy at Avolta, said: “Our first entry into Venice Marco Polo Airport is a clear example of how we are strengthening Avolta’s airport platform in Italy. This further bolsters our growth strategy in the country and our presence in the airport sector, where we have already opened nine outlets across various airports since the start of 2026.”
Ilaria Grandin, Marketing and Commercial non Aviation Director of SAVE Group, said: “We are pleased to welcome Avolta to Venice Marco Polo Airport. These new openings enhance the services available to our passengers, making the travel experience even more complete, international and attuned to travellers’ different needs, as part of our ongoing projects to develop and increase the airport’s commercial ecosystem in partnership with global operators.”
In Venice, Avolta will bring together two complementary formats designed around the needs of travelers on the move. The opening builds on Avolta’s collaboration with Costa Coffee, the British coffee brand founded by Italian brothers Sergio and Bruno Costa, following the launch of Italy’s first Costa Coffee retail store at Fiumicino Airport in 2024, marking the brand’s entry into the Italian market. Completing the offer in Venice, Hudson, Avolta’s travel convenience store will provide books, newspapers and travel essentials, giving travelers quick and easy access to essential items before departure.
