History of the Company

The original Tailwind Deli started in 2001 and operated at the Aspen, CO airport. That’s where our tradition of offering high-quality food, beverage and retail began. It was a highly successful operation.

In 2004, Tailwind Deli News and Gifts, Inc. opened in Wilmington, NC and began operating the concession at Wilmington International Airport, NC (ILM) in early 2005. Tailwind made substantial investments to create a full-service airport concession, including catering services for private jet flights, conferences and meetings. Since then we’ve grown.

We are a national company stretching coast to coast across America. Yet, each location remains unique in it's "sense of place" experience offered by our hospitality.

Tailwind Hospitality

Tailwind Hospitality, Inc. is dedicated to providing delicious food, signature beverages, and interesting gift shop concessions at busy airports. Our mission is to make traveling through the airport more pleasurable by enjoying our concession experience. We offer interesting menus with several local favorite foods and a variety of merchandise in our retail concessions with an emphasis on local souvenirs and area favorite gifts. Local wines and craft brews are popular attractions to our bars. But there's more.

Hospitality with a Smile

The customer comes first! We spend a lot of time and effort training associates to go beyond standard services to make sure the customer has a pleasant experience. Our business is customer centered and our goal is to have satisfied customers look forward to coming back. A smile can make a difference. It is the Tailwind way!

I've enjoyed working for this company. Anyone I've been in contact with (HR, etc) have been friendly and accomodating. I have had expections to fulfill just like any other job, but they have been there to help me fulfill those obligations rather than just hiring me and forgetting about me.

This is one of the most enjoyable jobs that I have had in a while. Working with customers is fun and helps the day fly by quicker. The manager is easy to talk to and is flexible with schedules. It took some time to get used to working early In the morning, but I like getting off earlier.
