Tourvest Destination Management, Southern Africa’s leading tourism company, has streamlined its comprehensive range of scheduled escorted tours, charters, transfers and accommodation to bring it in line with the company’s recent rebranding. This brand change coincides with the decision to market the product range directly to retail agents and tour operators.
Looking back over the company’s history, the TIO product division was created out of a need to provide central product to multiple brands within the business. The recent launch and rebranding of Tourvest Destination Management is a natural evolution to meet the demands of an ever-changing travel and tourism industry. In the past, these travel solutions were available exclusively to internal business units, now these services can be purchased by external companies looking for an innovative, cost-effective and diverse travel solution for their own clients.
Discussing this progressive new approach, Tourvest Destination Management Director of Operations & Procurement, Bryan Coetzee, says: “Our new branding is key to our re-positioning strategy which will add tremendous value in establishing a new identity for our products to our current and future clients.”
Tourvest Destination Management’s rebranded product range includes:
- TDM Air – An IATA-registered airline ticketing division provides clients with a full spectrum of published and competitive IT airfares on major domestic and international airlines.
- TDM Beds – Bulk pre-purchased hotel accommodation secured at distressed inventory rates, 365 days a year in Cape Town, Johannesburg, Hazyview, Hoedspruit and Knysna.
- TDM Pass – A highly discounted voucher accepted at over 250 properties throughout SA, including hotels, B&B’s, guest houses and lodges, providing the traveller flexibility to decide when and where they wish to travel at a predetermined, attractive price.
- TDM Touring – Offers scheduled escorted tours and day tours in all major tourism centres, conducted in luxury air-conditioned minibuses or luxury sedans with expert driver/guides. Three levels of touring options are available: Bronze, Explorer and Silver.
- TDM Transfers & Charters – A full spectrum of transportation solutions, including private transfers, scheduled departure shuttles, overland and local charters and shared transfers, with the added options of meet and greet and documentation handling.
- TDM Travel Planner – A documentation solution that provides travellers with their itinerary and other travel documentation, packaged utilising the purchaser’s own branding.
This product range is showcased in a beautiful new brochure, entitled ‘I am an African’, which is available directly from Tourvest Destination Management’s offices.
Complimenting this exciting new structure is the appointment of two new key account managers -Gillian Kombora in Johannesburg and Talia Moolman in Cape Town.
The restructuring of this product offering, as well as the rebranding of the company with a fresh, revitalised name and logo, is indicative of Tourvest Destination Management’s unwavering commitment to growth. This dynamic approach, coupled with years of experience and in-depth destination knowledge, has positioned the company at the helm, ready to unlock exciting new opportunities and explore untapped customer bases.
