Australian travel network TravelManagers has launched a new business travel brand, Corporate Travel Specialists (CTS), marking a strategic move to expand its presence in the corporate travel market.
The new brand was unveiled as part of the company’s broader growth strategy, enabling its network of Personal Travel Managers (PTMs) to provide dedicated services for business clients alongside leisure travel offerings.
TravelManagers said the launch responds to growing demand for personalised corporate travel services and recognises the strong recovery in business travel following the pandemic.
According to TravelManagers operations manager Troy Coelho, the initiative is designed to fill a gap in the market for a comprehensive advisor-based corporate travel model.
“CTS offers an extensive suite of corporate-focused resources, including a new website, marketing collateral, corporate airfares, hotel and car hire programmes, administrative support from a Corporate Operations Executive and business support from a dedicated Corporate Business Development Manager (BDM).” He said.
Corporate travel already represents a meaningful segment of TravelManagers’ business, accounting for around 10 percent of the company’s total turnover and team believe the sector offers significant room for growth.
Corporate travel agencies provide a wide range of services for organisations, including negotiated airline and hotel rates, travel policy management, expense tracking and duty-of-care support for travelling employees. and corporate clients.
The launch also highlights the continued importance of human expertise in business travel planning. While many corporate travellers rely on online booking tools, companies increasingly value personalised service for complex itineraries, international travel and multi-destination business trips.
With corporate travel demand continuing to rebound globally, TravelManagers’ new Corporate Travel Specialists brand positions the company to capture a larger share of the business travel market while offering organisations a more tailored travel management solution.
