French tour operator Voyages Services Plus (VSP) has appointed Raj Devas, currently Manager-Sales and Marketing, VSP, who will be moving out of the company this month end, as representative for the Indian market.
The representative office will be located in Goa and is expected to start operations by September 2010.
Through this development the company intends to ensure a point of contact for the Indian travel trade, as well as promote VSP’s services in India. While the company currently focuses on FIT and incentive travel, it plans to tap the MICE outbound segment from India. The company has been working with the Indian market for the past six months and has already become its sixth important source market globally.
Devas said, “Even though VSP will have a representative office in India, it will not work directly with clients. It will still continue to work with its Indian travel trade partners and generate Indian business through them.” VSP currently works with tour operators like Thomas Cook, Saltours, Amigo Travels and Omega Travels. VSP’s objective is also to increase its travel trade partners in India. The company plans to work with major tour operators including Kesari Tours for conducting their tours in France.
VSP will also be working with Atout France to promote the country in India. It will also be participating in trade fairs to promote its services in the Indian market. Besides Paris and Nice, the company now plans to promote the India tours all over World. It also aims to increase the average length of stay of Indians in France.
