37 pct of Byers looking to talk to Greek businesses
- Written by E.Tsiliopoulos
The tourism industries in Greece, Egypt and Turkey could be getting back on track, according to the WTM Industry Report 2016 released today at World Travel Market London.
More than 2,000 buyers and exhibitors were polled for the report, with half the global sample saying they are planning to have conversations with suppliers from Egypt, Greece or Turkey.
The three destinations’ tourism industries have been hit hard by a combination of political uncertainty and terrorist attacks over the past few years, prompting many travel companies to withdraw from or severely limit their presence.
However, this could be about to change, with 37% of the total sample looking to talk to Greek businesses, 29% looking to talk to Turkish suppliers and 17% heading toward the Egypt stands.
