Saturday, 13 Sep, 2010 0
Barrhead Travel says it is on track to pass the £100m turnover mark with increased profit over 2009.
 
The company, which forecasts 25% growth, opened three new branches and five new franchises this year and next year three more branches are planned plus more homeworkers and franchises.
 
The company says the  travel management division will grow by 30% this year like-for-like while a new business travel franchise was set up in Belfast in March.
 
There are reports that the cruise and longhaul business is also blossoming.
 
In order to achieve this, Barrhead grew its IT infrastructure, integrating the CRM, front office, mid office and back office systems and upgraded its contact centre technology.
