The Hudson Group is an East Rutherford, New Jersey, based retailer which operates a chain of newsstands, bookstores, fast food restaurants, and other retail stores chiefly at airports and train stations in the United States. It was founded in 1918 by Ike Cohen as a newspaper distributorship in Bayonne, New Jersey, and formally incorporated in 1926. In 1975, the company opened its first retail store, in Newark Liberty International Airport. Hudson Group opened more outlets throughout the New York City area in the 1980s and 1990s, later expanding nationally. In 2001, the company expanded into Canada, and in 2004, it acquired W H Smith's North American airport retail operations. See Less
