Gourmet brand Jones the Grocer has launched its express concept at Dubai International (DXB) Terminal 3 B gates, which marks the first airport outlet for the F&B brand, and the world's first Jones the Grocer express.

Jones the Grocer’s DXB outlet serves its single origin coffees, croissants, muffins, sandwiches, salads, soups and mains. All items are made fresh daily and packaged ready for immediate take away. Designed in Jones’ trademark décor, the café also features seating options for customers.

Dubai Airports executive vice president - commercial and communications Eugene Barry said in a statement: "We’re delighted to welcome Jones the Grocer to DXB. The express concept dovetails perfectly with our plans to expand the variety of “grab and go” food concepts."

He added: "It is also the first in a series of food, lifestyle and cultural engagement partnerships that we will be rolling out in the months ahead as part of our strategy to create an airport experience that is second to none. It builds on the recent service successes we have had with the world’s fastest airport Wi-Fi, WOW-Fi, smart gates and musicDXB. There’s more to come. Watch this space."

Operated by HMSHost International, the collaboration between Jones the Grocer, HMSHost International and Dubai Airports has developed the first Jones the Grocer in an airport and the world’s first Jones the Grocer express.

Jones the Grocer was established in 1996 with the launch of the flagship Australian store in Woollahra, Sydney, and now has stores across Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Thailand, Qatar, Bahrain and the UAE.
