Plaza Premium Group, pioneers in airport hospitality and world leaders in global airport hotel service providers, is pleased to announce the expansion of its award-winning hospitality in Latin America. The opening of the Plaza Premium Lounge in mid-September at the São Paulo / Guarulhos International Airport (GRU) in Brazil strengthens the Group's springboard for further expansion on the continent. The Plaza Premium Lounge at Brazil's São Paulo / Guarulhos International Airport (GRU) is the Group's second in South America after the debut of Plaza Premium Lounge at Rio de Janeiro International Airport in 2016, and the sights are on other locations in the near future.

Plaza Premium Lounge will function as a separate lounge and will be conveniently located in the national games area.

"The opening of Plaza Premium Lounge at the GRU reinforces our commitment to Latin America. Rio de Janeiro gave us a springboard into this significant and important market 5 years ago, the region offers exciting opportunities for Plaza Premium Group. Together with our strategic partners and our proven track record of developing and managing airport hospitality services around the world, we are actively identifying new opportunities on the continent to further expand our presence in the region.
