Nick Crews never planned to join the family business in airport concessions. But, while finishing law school, Crews was also working part-time at LAX overseeing his parents’ news and gift locations. He built relationships, gained an appreciation for his parents’ work and has never left. Crews Cos. has become a leading ACDBE operator nationally, with 35 locations across LAX, ATL and the Washington airports, with more on the way. Crews leads collaboratively, which he says has helped with employee retention. That same approach has led to deeper relationships with brand and vendor partners as the airport has become a more technology-driven and complex place of business.
