FCm expansion continues with Irish deal
Travel Management Company FCm Travel Solutions has further expanded its network by signing a deal with Irish business agency Corporate Travel Partners.
The company, which employs 60 staff and has offices in Dublin, Cork and Galway, will rebrand as FCm with immediate effect.
FCm was launched at the end of June with former Britannic Travel managing director Alan Spence heading the UK operation. He has vowed to challenge the dominance of the major corporate agents within two years.
“Being part of FCm’s global network enables us to better meet the future demands of Ireland’s business travellers,” said Corporate Travel Partners managing director Joe Balfe. “We will now be able to deliver a more extensive service to our existing clients.”
FCm is still in talks to secure a deal in America – one of its key targets which Spence admitted is important in order to challenge the major players.
