Travel Counsellors has made a key expansion move into North America.

It has announced the acquisition of Canada based network The Travel Agent Next Door (TTAND)

The UK-based homeworking company will almost double its travel advisor network with the addition of 1,700 TTAND travel professionals.

TTAND was founded in 2014 by Flemming Friisdahl, TTAND’S CEO.

Friisdahl will stay on to lead the TTAND operation and in the near future the travel agent network will be integrated into Travel Counsellors’ technology platform.

Travel Counsellors generated record total transaction value (TTV) of £1.1bn this past financial year.

“Together, we will continue to build on the outstanding culture and essence of TTAND and drive further success. The deal is an important milestone in our growth strategy,” said Steve Byrne, CEO of Travel Counsellors.

“Canada is one of the world’s largest outbound travel markets and in TTAND we have partnered with one of the most successful travel businesses in that market.”
