VINCI Airports wins the concession for Salvador's airport in Brazil
- Total annual traffic close to 7.5 million passengers
- A 30-year concession contract
On completion of a call for tenders initiated by ANAC (Agência Nacional de Aviação Civil), VINCI Airports was this Thursday awarded the concession for Deputado Luis Eduardo Magalhaes airport, for a 30-year term. Located in the city of Salvador, this airport is currently managed by the public operator Infraero.
With more than 7.5 million passengers welcomed in 2016, the Deputado Luis Eduardo Magalhaes airport in Salvador is Brazil's 9th-largest airport. The concession contract won by VINCI Airports covers operation, maintenance and extension-upgrading of the existing terminal and the runways system.
VINCI Airports, already established in Latin America, is the concessionaire since 1st October 2015 for a 20-year term of the Santiago de Chile International Airport, in the framework of a consortium, and since 9 April 2016, valid until March 2030, of six airports in the Dominican Republic, including that of Santo Domingo capital city.
This success marks a new stage in VINCI Concessions' development strategy in this part of the world : over the last two years, VINCI Concessions has carried out several investments in motorways' operation in Colombia and Peru.
