Paradies Lagardère has announced the closing of its acquisition of Hojeij Branded Foods (HBF), airport dining operator, making Paradies the third-largest operator in the country’s travel retail and restaurant industry.
When the acquisition was first announced in August, then-CEO of HBF, Regynald Washington, said, “Combining the forces of HBF and Paradies Lagardère is a natural fit, as both companies are recognized for operational expertise, top-notch guest service, and a strong commitment to employees.”
