"October has been particularly strong month for us, given the fact that we've had the World Cup on and most agencies stating that it has been very quiet," said Mike Southcombe, Managing Director of Travel Managers in New Zealand. "It's particularly pleasing to see that we are on track and the performance is a direct reflection of the expertise and experience of our personal travel managers, capitalizing on what can only be described as a strong travel market.”

Mr Southcombe further commented: "We are experiencing impressive growth despite the effects of the economic downturn. New Zealand travellers are ignoring the doom and gloom and have decided that it's time to look forward to their break."

"The results are fantastic and it's a positive sign that the travel industry is still flourishing for personal travel brokers  who can be there for their customers. Our focus on customer service, building long lasting relationships and providing unique value added services is ensuring that our sales remain strong throughout the year and our customers keep coming back to us," said Mr Southcombe.

Mr Southcombe believes the business is going from strength to strength and expects their growth trend to continue. "It proves that with the right training and support, the best travel brokers can thrive in an industry they love."
