24.02.2012

ZURICH, Feb. 24, 2012 -- gategroup, the world's leading independent provider of
onboard products and services, has entered into a new agreement for renewed and
expanded business with Virgin Australia.


    The agreement not only extends Gate Gourmet's catering and provisioning
business for four years with Virgin Australia having the option to renew for two
further one-year terms, but also significantly expands the level of services.

    Virgin Australia last month launched Business Class on most domestic routes,
including new premium cabins and gourmet menus designed by Australian celebrity
chef Luke Mangan. Depending on the cabin, route or fare level, complimentary
meals and beverages, as well as food for purchase are available.

    "It is our privilege to be a part of this step change in Virgin Australia's
passenger service and we are proud of our work in helping Virgin Australia
accomplish its future vision," said gategroup CEO Andrew Gibson. "These
agreements solidify our long-standing relationship with the airline and further
strengthen our footprint in Australia."

    gategroup estimates that the total value to it over the contract period is
in excess of CHF 250 million
