FCm Travel Solutions has broadened its corporate
travel network in Africa after signing a new partner agreement
with the Alive brand in Angola, an affiliate of OnTourism Capital Investments.
Alive has a presence in Angola,
Portugal, Spain and Brazil.
Earlier this year
FCm signed a partner agreement
with Alive’s operation in Portugal and now has added the company’s operation in Luanda to the partnership.
As part of
OnTourism Capital Investments, FCm Angola offers corporates more
than 20 years experience in the travel industry. The agency’s
dedicated corporate travel team provides regional and
multinational companies with comprehensive business travel and
expense management services including on-the-ground
escort, transfer and security services.
FCm Angola also
specialises in managing travel for group incentive trips,
conferences and sports groups.
“The focus on African countries such as Angola, for
being an emerging economy, is really starting to resonate in the corporate travel industry. We’re seeing increased demand from our
clients based in Europe, Asia and Australia for travel management
services in countries such as Angola, Ghana, Nigeria and Kenya,”
said General Manager of FCm’s
Middle East and Africa Network, Ciarán Kelly. “Our multinational clients are asking for local on-the-ground
travel teams, market knowledge and general travel advice, which is
best provided by teams that know the local market conditions. This partnership will ensure FCm can accommodate those requests for
companies with commercial interests here. We’re seeing a lot of
interest from resource firms looking to capitalise on Angola’s oil
reserves.”
