Journeys group reports 25 % sales turnover increase on 2009 during the first Quarter 2010
The world of youth travel and budget accommodation is moving forward at an astonishing rate with backpacking now more popular than ever before. The concept of the Gap Year has now been fully realized and is a term that most people are familiar with.
It makes sense then that the industry around this phenomenon is growing. Journeys Hostels are leading the way in this field by managing the first branded hostel franchise. Seeing a 25% sales turnover increase on 2009 during the first quarter of 2010 Journeys is on track to become the first recognisable global hostel company. Customers are responding to a hostel brand they can trust to provide a safe, clean and fun environment at a price they can afford.
Offering publicans the chance to reinvent the use of their building a Journeys Hostel franchise provide landlords with a tried and tested way of bringing in new revenue streams to their business, the guests drink at the bar as well as paying to stay. “This is a very exciting new opportunity Journeys Hostels offer that combines the tourism industry with the pub game. I think we have proved how it can be beneficial for everyone involved.†Says Goran Krgo Journeys Area General Manager.
