Firm: Thomson Geer (Adelaide Airport Limited)
Value: $165 million
Area: Corporate
Key players: Thomson Geer partner Tony Saint led the team working on this transaction, with assistance by senior associate Shannon Schwarz.
Deal significance: The key focus of the Adelaide Airport terminal expansion is to significantly improve the arrivals and departures experience for international passengers, and create more retail and dining options for both domestic and international travellers, according to a statement from Thomson Geer.
The national firm explained that work on the new terminal expansion will begin immediately, with an expected completion date in 2021. Some of the upgrades will include a "second, longer baggage belt for arrivals, more space for emigration and immigration processing, expanded security screening, a larger duty free precinct for arrivals and departures, and expanded dining and retail options", Thomson Geer's statement said.
In addition, Thomson Geer noted that the expansion will include a complete refurbishment of retail areas, "resulting in a more than 80 per cent increase in the overall size of the terminal's retail and dining areas for both domestic and international passengers".
