COFFEE house Caffè Nero has created 12 jobs with the opening of a new retail unit at George Best Belfast City Airport.
It has launched pop-up kiosk for now, with a permanent unit opening in the main concourse of the terminal in April.
Will Stratton-Morris, chief executive of Caffe Nero UK, which is the largest independent coffee house group in Europe, said: “We were founded in 1997 on a philosophy of delivering premium, award-winning Italian coffee, a warm and welcoming ambience, good food, and personal service to everyone that enters our doors.
“These are values we share with Belfast City Airport, making it a fantastic addition to our airport portfolio, which already includes Heathrow, Edinburgh, and Manchester.
“We're delighted to be working in partnership with Belfast City Airport as it strives to deliver an exceptional airport experience for its passengers and look forward to welcoming the first customer through our doors.”
The Nero Group operates over 1,000 stores across 10 countries, including 650 Caffè Nero stores in the UK, where it employs more than 6,000 people.
