Hundreds of buyers and sellers of travel packages will gather under one roof for a business-to-business meeting in November this year to boost national and international tourist traffic and help small and medium enterprises.
With the slogan Creating a Responsible Travel Business Line, the B2B meeting dubbed ‘Travel Business Exchange (TBEx) Pilipinas 2018’ will be held atClark Marriott Hotel on Nov. 8 to 9, with SMEs under the Network of Independent Travel & Allied Services Philippines Inc. participating.
TBEX Pilipinas project director and business event creator Angel Ramos Bognot said buyers and sellers would come from Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao. Participants from other countries are also expected.
“Mostly medium size, Nitas-member companies can quickly form consortiums to organize big-volume tour packages that can fill up airline seats in any flight to anywhere in the country or across the world,” Bognot said.
“Nonetheless, most of the sellers will come from Luzon and Visayas, especially those operating around Clark, thus enabling them to expand their captive markets beyond their usual domains,” Bognot said.
