History
Air Terminal Gifts Inc. was born in 1961 when Bill and his wife, Lucille, won a bid to open an airport gift shop boutique and newsstand. The Crismons won this bid competing against local and national companies. The Crismons' son, Tom, eventually began working summers in the family business, and in 1969, came on permanently as a manager. Kathy Crismon, Tom's wife, joined the company in 1970, assisting with bookkeeping and payroll. In 1972, Bill passed away, and Tom, Kathy and other family members became even more involved with Air Terminal Gifts Inc. During the past several years, the company has experienced consistent growth in spite of growing security and other regulations associated with the airline industry. The products chosen give travelers a break from typical, cookie-cutter, corporate-owned stores that are often prevalent in other airports. Our unique store concepts have changed the face of airport retail, and we plan on continuing this practice for years to come.
