GIC International Catering has today announced the opening of a second production facility in Munich from July 2026. The new facility will complement the company’s existing operations in Kelsterbach near Frankfurt Airport.
On Thursday (April 9, 2026), GIC International Catering announced the opening of a second production facility from July 2026 in CTPark Munich North, complementing their existing operations in Kelsterbach near Frankfurt Airport. The new production facility, covering around 2,500 square meters will have a capacity of 20,000 meals per day, and is being built directly adjacent to Munich Airport, with completion scheduled for July 1, 2026. The independent airline caterer is investing around €1.8 million in the development of their second location and is focusing on state-of-the-art infrastructure. In addition to high-quality standards for airline meals, GIC places particular emphasis on sustainable and efficient processes.
In Thursday’s announcement, GIC International Catering’s CEO, Göksel Yildirim, said,
“We want to continue our success story, which is why the decision to open a second branch in Munich is the next logical step. At Germany’s second-largest airport, we see strong potential to optimally serve both existing and new customers. At the same time, we are also evaluating additional locations, including Berlin and international markets, but our initial focus is on successfully establishing operations in Munich.”
GIC’s entry into Bavaria is a key component of the company’s long-term growth strategy. By establishing a presence at another major aviation hub in Germany, the company is responding to the demands of numerous international customers. Airlines increasingly request catering services in both Frankfurt and Munich from a single provider, and the new production facility in Munich will enable GIC to fully meet these requirements. GIC already supplies Uzbekistan Airways and Somon Air at Munich Airport via a partner caterer. Across Munich and their Frankfurt headquarters, the company currently serves more than 20 airlines.
GIC International Catering GmbH (GIC), based in Kelsterbach close to Frankfurt Airport, has been a reliable partner in airline catering for 25 years, while also providing first-class catering services for schools as well as private events. As a family-owned business, GIC combines excellent cuisine with tailor-made solutions, sustainability, and cooperative partnerships. With state-of-the-art production and logistic processes as well as strict international security and hygiene standards, GIC stands for reliability and highest quality standards. The company is opening a second production facility close to Munich Airport in July 2026.
