A Message from Elie W. Maalouf, President & CEO

Welcome to HMSHost and thank you for visiting our website.

At HMSHost, our primary goal is to make the traveler’s day better. For more than 111 years, HMSHost has been serving travelers with the familiar and unique dining and shopping brands they enjoy. You’ve likely been a guest at one or more of the travel food, beverage and retail concessions we operate in the U.S. and 15 other countries around the globe.

We are part of Autogrill S.p.A. – the world’s largest provider of food, beverage and retail services for travelers. Along with the rest of the Autogrill Group, we are recognized industry leaders who create innovative dining and shopping locations at airports and on motorways worldwide. With 34,000 associates and revenues of more than $2.7 billion, we use our experience and global reach to offer travelers an unparalleled blend of local, regional and international brands.

Airports have become the new gathering place. We know that travelers want to make the best use of their time and they expect enhanced dining and shopping opportunities. At more than 100 airports worldwide including Europe and Asia Pacific, we’re providing the restaurants and shops that offer a welcome relief from the stress of air travel.

We also offer a welcome respite along the motorways, at more than 80 Turnpike travel plaza stops in North America. With national and local restaurant and retail brands in state-of-the-art facilities, we serve motorists and families driving on U.S. toll roads from Maine to West Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Indiana and Illinois, and in Canada from Windsor to Cornwall.

HMSHost is committed to the communities we serve and we strive to be a responsible corporate citizen through charitable involvement, financial support, and job creation. We have a strong pattern of giving and helping national and local charities in the communities we serve. Such organizations include the Children’s Miracle Network, the United Services Organization (USO), local chapters of Boys & Girls Clubs, and many more.

We believe in protecting the environments in which we work and actively support the green efforts of all our airport and motorway partners. We are continually improving our processes to the highest level possible, particularly as they relate to waste management, recycling, sustainability and energy consumption.

We invite you to tour our site and take a look at how we stay at the top of the game in delivering exceptional food, beverage and retail experiences around the globe.
