Hardywood, Beet Box and more will open at the Richmond airport this year
Why it matters: Hardywood Park Craft Brewery and The Beet Box juice bar, two local brands, will be some of the new options.
The big picture: The Capital Region Airport Commission, the group that owns and operates Richmond International Airport, last week signed off on two new full-service restaurants and bars, plus two new coffee and cafe kiosks, for the airport.
The newcomers were selected from the commission's request for new concession proposals last year, according to BizSense, which first reported the news.
Three will land in Concourse A (the one on the right / if you're flying American or JetBlue), while Concourse B (if you're flying Delta, Southwest or United) will get the fourth.
Faber, Coe & Gregg, a New Jersey-based airport concession vendor, will operate the restaurants and Richmond's own Beet Box will run the two kiosks.
Zoom in: The Hardywood Park Craft Brewery (airport edition!) will go near gates A-15 and A-16 (in place of open seating) and include a full-service restaurant and bar, plus grab-and-go options, per the resolution adopted at last week's meeting.
The Beet Box's two concepts (one called The Beet Box and the other Homegrown) will go near gates A-8 and A-11.
Concourse B travelers won't be left behind though. A Wolfgang Puck Bar & Bites will taxi in near gates B-14 and B-15.
All four should be open by the end of the year, airport spokesperson Troy Bell tells Axios.

FTC sues LA Fitness operators for ‘exceedingly difficult' gym cancellation policies
NEW YORK (AP) — The U.S. Federal Trade Commission is suing the operators of LA Fitness, over allegations that they make it 'exceedingly difficult' for consumers to cancel gym memberships and other related services offered in their clubs nationwide. In a Wednesday complaint, the FTC accused Fitness International and its subsidiary Fitness & Sports Clubs of illegally charging consumers 'hundreds of millions of dollars in unwanted recurring fees' as a result of cumbersome cancellation processes. The agency said that tens of thousands of customers have reported difficulties with these policies to date. 'The FTC's complaint describes a scenario that too many Americans have experienced — a gym membership that seems impossible to cancel,' Christopher Mufarrige, director of the agency's Bureau of Consumer Protection, said in a statement. Beyond LA Fitness, California-based Fitness International operates brands like Esporta Fitness, City Sports Club, and Club Studio — spanning across more than 600 locations with over 3.7 million members nationwide. And the FTC pointed to two 'unfair and unlawful' cancellation processes that it says these gyms have used for years: in-person cancellation or cancellation by mail. Both of these options require consumers to print out a form on the gym's website, which includes logging in with credentials that the agency says some customers don't have or remember. And if a customer opts for in-person cancellation, there's limited hours and often difficulty finding a manager to process the forms, the complaint notes — while mailing the form comes with additional costs. 'Each of these cancellation methods is opaque, complicated, and demanding — far from simple,' the FTC writes in its complaint. It also alleges that the company doesn't adequately disclose cancellation offerings when consumers sign up for memberships, and that some will be signed up for additional services with recurring charges without realizing there may be different cancellation requirements. According to the FTC, Fitness International now offers website cancellations for subscriptions 'with stand-alone agreements' — but the agency said the process 'still imposes unnecessary burdens' on customers and claims that that option is buried online. It's also still not possible to cancel memberships on the company's mobile apps, the FTC added. Fitness International did not immediately respond to The Associated Press' request for comment on Wednesday. This isn't the first time that federal regulators have accused gym operators — and other companies with subscription services — of making their cancellation processes too difficult for consumers. Under the Biden administration, the FTC adopted a 'click to cancel' rule, which would have made it easier for consumers to end unwanted subscriptions. But last month, days before that rule was poised to go into effect, a federal appeals court blocked the proposed changes. In its litigation against Fitness International, the FTC says it's seeking a court order prohibiting the allegedly unfair conduct and money back for consumers who were harmed by difficult cancellation processes.
