OGDEN CITY CORPORATION

REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL

Ogden – Hinckley Airport Full-Service Restaurant Concessionaire

I. INTRODUCTION

Ogden City seeks to establish a full-service restaurant within the Ogden-Hinckley Airport

terminal that provides high-quality food and beverage service to passengers, visitors,

airport employees, airport tenants, and the general public. Passenger volumes, commercial

flight activity, and customer demand at the Airport are continuing to grow, creating an

opportunity for an on-terminal dining option that enhances the overall airport experience.

The Airport recognizes the challenges associated with launching a new concession in an

evolving market and has intentionally structured this Request for Proposals (RFP) to reduce

early-stage risk while allowing for future adjustments as operating patterns and customer

demand become better defined. This opportunity is intended for an adaptable operator

interested in establishing a sustainable food-and-beverage presence in an emerging airport

environment. To support early-stage viability, rather than guaranteed volume, the Airport is

offering flexible operating and financial terms, including access to a fully functional

commercial kitchen and a waiver of rent and utility costs associated with the space during

the first year of operation.

It is anticipated that this RFP process will result in one (1) contract award. The RFP

document and the selected proposal will become part of the final contract. The base contract

term will consist of a guaranteed initial period of two (2) years, with the option to renew

annually for up to three (3) additional years, subject to performance and mutual agreement.
