Deliciouslyorkshire pop-up shop launches at Leeds Bradford Airport for festive period

A new Deliciouslyorkshire pop-up shop has been launched to serve thousands of international visitors at Leeds Bradford Airport.

The Deliciouslyorkshire shop, which will run until Christmas Eve, will feature a range of products from suppliers across the county to more than 120,000 passengers who will use the airport during that time.

There will be more than 35 producers featured, from local beers, ciders, spirits, jams, chutneys, sweet treats and gifts.

The Deliciouslyorkshire shop was opened by chef consultant Steph Moon, who said: “This a great way to showcase the very best of Yorkshire produce which will make the perfect Christmas present for passengers flying from the airport over the next month. I am proud to open it!”

Judy Bell, chairman of Deliciouslyorkshire, added: “We’re absolutely thrilled with the opportunity to showcase some of the world’s finest food and drink produced right here in Yorkshire and we are sure visitors will want to take a taste of Yorkshire to their loved ones for Christmas, to enjoy on their holiday or to take advantage of the ‘collect on return’ facility offered by Leeds Bradford Airport.

“We would encourage them to take a little piece of Yorkshire with them and at the same time support local producers by making a purchase. This is the first Deliciouslyorkshire pop-up shop showcasing Yorkshire brands and products, and where better than at Yorkshire’s international mecca – Leeds Bradford Airport!”

David Laws, CEO at Leeds Bradford Airport, also commented: “We are committed to providing an enhanced airport experience for our customers and what better way than by working with Deliciouslyorkshire on this venture to bring them the opportunity to sample and buy some of the very best of Yorkshire’s fantastic food and drink.
