concessionaire

Booth operator here

A concessionaire is a person or business that holds a concession—the right to operate within a larger venue or property.

The term appears most often in contexts where someone runs a food stand, gift shop, or other service inside a park, stadium, airport, or similar facility.

The concessionaires at the ballpark were swamped during the seventh-inning stretch.

The word implies a contractual arrangement where the concessionaire pays fees or a percentage of sales to the property owner.
