New tenders from Aena were issued at the end of May.

Spanish airport operator Aena has several spaces available for potential retail or food and beverage (F&B) partners, with deadlines at the end of June.

Across the company’s airports, two concessions are at Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas Airport (MAD). One is a 55sq m space in Terminal 1 plus 26sq m at the boarding area of airside Gates A. Aena states: “The successful bidder may operate the leased space as a duty-free or duty-paid establishment, provided they comply with the requirements established by current legislation.”

Annual minimum rents for the five-year concession (with extensions of up to two years) start at €100,000 in 2026 and rise to €132,500 in 2031. The deadline for submissions is 29 June.

Also at MAD is a much smaller space of 4.6sq m intended for nutrition and wellbeing in Terminal 4. Located on Level 1 of the commercial plaza (south zone), the premises will incur an annual minimum rent of €56,000 in 2026, rising to €59,428 in 2029. The concession is for three years, with the possibility of two extensions of one year each.
