Blackjack futhers airports access for retail and brand experience services

Travel retail promotions specialist and founder member of the Airport Promotion Agencies (APA) association, Blackjack Promotions, has announced that it is expanding its operations into three new UK airports.

Blackjack is already active in the majority of UK airports, including Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Manchester and Glasgow and will shortly be able to add travel retail campaigns for its clients at Leeds/Bradford, East Midlands and Newcastle Airports.

Although specialising in travel retail, Blackjack will be offering its full range of services at these new locations. This means the agency’s clients will be able to take advantage of the its wealth of experience in staffing, concierge and customer service as well as experiential marketing and airport logistics to support any campaigns they are running.

“This will be a major boost for our travel retail business,” said Blackjack managing director Sally Alington. “Not just from the perspective of allowing us to offer a greater range of locations to our customers, but also because it enables us to expand our UK-wide staffing database to encompass these areas. Blackjack already provides an unrivalled range of security-cleared staff and offers a variety of services including brand ambassadors, experiential staff, auditors and mystery shoppers and this will add more weight to our offering.”

Blackjack is one of very few agencies with authorised signatory status and currently provides staffing solutions in most UK Airports and across Europe through its network of partner agencies, the APA, which in total covers 81 European Airports. Blackjack has operational offices located in Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Manchester and Glasgow airports.
