Directravel latest to sign up
Directravel of New Jersey has joined Hogg Robinson Group's North America Affiliates Program.
The travel agency is the fifth US agency to sign up to the agreement which gives it access to HRG's products and services as well as the ability to bid for accounts previously beyond them.
The other members of the scheme are based in New York State, Texas, California and Florida.
HRG said the programme was aimed at providing large regional travel management companies to compete with multi-national TMCs.
Chris Dane, president of the HRG North America Affiliates Program, said: "The partnership will allow HRG to assist Directravel and their clients in achieving their goal of consolidating on a global scale. They are a perfect fit to the team."
Patrick Fragale, Directravel's president, said: "Having one central source for worldwide customer service will allow for more consistent and competitive pricing as well as enhanced reporting options on a global basis."
