TUI Group is accelerating its
international expansion with entry to the Latin American (LATAM) market as a
new sales region. This strategic move capitalises on TUI’s technology and the
expertise of its Spain & Portugal team, positioning the company for
substantial growth across the region.
TUI has been collaborating closely with travel agency
partners in multiple countries, including Argentina, Mexico, Uruguay, and
Colombia, to offer vacation experiences tailored to customers from the LATAM
market. By launching a dedicated digital platform, customers, travel agencies
and partners will be able to book tours and holidays, including experiences,
directly on a localised TUI website as well as through additional partners in
the different LATAM markets.
"TUI is a global business with a global footprint
– but today we primarily sell to European customers. Now, we expand our
offering to customers in Latin America as a sales region as well," said
Sebastian Ebel, CEO of TUI Group. "We have the expertise, the diverse
product offerings, and the technological infrastructure to deliver exceptional
vacations for anyone, anywhere in the world. Latin America represents a
significant growth opportunity for us, and through our digital platforms, we
are poised to meet the region’s rising demand, and scale quickly. TUI is ready
to make a major impact in Latin America."
TUI Spain & Portugal, experts in outbound travel
from Spain and Portugal for TUI Group, has forged strong relationships with key
travel agencies across Latin America, developing products for customers from
the region, and seeing promising growth in recent years. To support this
momentum and cater to the increasing demand, TUI has launched a dedicated
platform specifically designed for LATAM travel agents and their customers from
the region, loaded with a range of pre-defined packages, as well as the option
to dynamically produce vacation itineraries. This platform is now live and
already contributing to sales growth, marking a significant milestone in TUI's global
strategy.
