“We’re dedicated to bringing the BWI Marshall traveler shopping options that make for a quality experience,” said Brett Kelly, vice president, Fraport Maryland, developer and manager of the airport’s retail program. “Part of the reason we chose Stellar and MGV was because of the great brand partnerships and operations experience they have.
