athandz – Infoserve expands its local portfolio
View(s):Infoserve, a subsidiary of PC House PLC (PCH) Group, has introduced a Travel Itinerary service to the local market, following the launch of its customised news alerts service for corporates last year. This service will provide a customised travel plan to a choice of any favoured destination, the company said in a statement.
“The industry’s target of attracting 2.5 million tourists by 2016 offers evidence of untapped potential for growth. All these factors have encouraged us to introduce our travel itinerary services to the local industry,” said Erandi Narangoda, Head of Operations, Infoserve (Pvt) Ltd – the company behind the global brand “athandz”.
“This along with our research capabilities and lead generation services will help the local travel trade achieve their ambitious growth targets.”
The statement said that through strong sales partnerships with Zellor AB and Innovation Nation in Sweden, athandz has gained widespread acceptation for its services in the European markets. The company has also generated several new leads through its participation at last year’s Internet Discovery Day event held in Stockholm. The company now intends to focus on the Sri Lankan market.
Commenting on this, the official said, “Though we are based out of Sri Lanka, our services have traditionally been more popular in European markets. We would now like to establish ourselves as a strong player in the local market.”
athandz began operations in 2003, and was the local pioneer in offering Internet research services, coming under the banner of Infoserve in 2008.
