A new travel agency is setting ambitious plans for ‘significant growth’ across the UK, with the opening of its first high street retail outlet in Swindon this summer. This development marks the agency’s entry into the retail sector, clearly outlining their commitment to establishing a prominent presence in the competitive market of travel agencies.
Renovations for the Swindon-based store commenced last weekend, with the completion expected within the next month. This rapid progression underscores their intent to enter the market promptly, providing potential customers with a dedicated space to explore and book cruise holidays.
Led by Ashley Hunt, the director of the Swindon Travel Hub and former global head of trading at Imagine Cruising, the agency aims to differentiate itself by providing unique travel experiences. “Initially, we’ll launch with a small team, but we fully intend to scale up based on demand,” Hunt stated, emphasising their readiness to adapt to customer needs and market conditions.
Located on Devizes Road, this store is anticipated to be the first in a series of Travel Hub premises anticipated throughout the UK. This indicates a strategic plan to increase their footprint and authority in the travel sector, aligning with their ambitious vision for expansion.
In a bid to connect with the local community and foster goodwill, the agency has sponsored the upcoming Christmas pantomime of Cinderella at The Wyvern Theatre in Swindon. This sponsorship reflects their commitment to supporting local traditions and engaging with the community, as director Shaun Jones expressed his enthusiasm for joining the festive activities.
The new travel agency is positioning itself strategically for robust growth within the UK through its innovative retail approach and community engagement.
