After more than a decade at Kuoni, Robin Griffiths has been named as business development manager for the Midlands byAPT.
In November, he will join the company to take responsibility for building relationships with key trade partners.
The Kuoni trade sales team reformed after the Pandemic. He has worked for a number of different companies.
The river cruise, yachting and touring operator said his appointment was the first step in an expansion of its trade team.
After seeing sales exceed pre-pandemic levels, the 95-year-old business prioritised the trade as it looked ahead to its 100th anniversary.
Brad Bennetts is the head of sales and business development and previously worked at Kuoni.
I know that Robin will hit the ground running, and his professionalism and understanding of the travel trade will be a great asset as we build awareness of our products and commercial opportunities for our valued agent partners.
It is an exciting time for the brand, and to raise awareness of the brands incredible product offerings still further in the region.
I am looking forward to helping existing trade partners find even greater sales success as well as introducing new agents to the plethora of opportunities that Travelmarvel can offer them and their clients.
