Comtec in Global Expansion
NOVEMBER 2, 2006. Comtec has continued with what it says will be significant international expansion within the next two years following the implementation of its Travelink system by a French tour operator.
Lyon based Tourinter has implemented Comtec's Travelink sales and management system in order to enhance the tailor-made travel service offered via its customer call centre. In order to meet Tourinter's requirements, Comtec has introduced a French language version of its sales system and integrated Amadeus Nego Fares and Amadeus Nego Space with Travelink.
Ed Whiting, Product Director at Comtec commented "We believe travel organisations across Europe, North America and beyond are seeking the same business benefits that Comtec products and services deliver to hundreds of U.K. travel agents and tour operators today. To grow our business, we're therefore looking at new markets where we feel the proposition that has lead to Comtec becoming the UK's leading leisure travel technology can be applied in order to enable overseas travel companies to achieve competitive advantage".
Comtec recently announced an agreement with US-based Vacation.com, North America's largest vacation network, to evaluate the needs of its membership base with Whiting adding, "In 2007, we're planning to extend customer base in France, expand within North America and enter the Australasian market."
