Friday 29 April 2016

Co-operative Travelmaker has been named as the South West’s Top Travel Agency in a new power-list of the UK & Ireland’s best agents.

The agency beat off competition from four other high street agent finalists in the South West to take the trophy.

Co-operative Travelmaker Travel Manager Darren Davison, said: "We were so pleased to get in to the shortlist for the region, but to win the overall category and be crowned South West's Top Travel Agency is a dream come true. Our colleagues are dedicated to customer satisfaction and this recognition of the hard work they do is well deserved and we are all extremely proud."

TTG’s Top 50 Travel Agencies list was revealed in a glittering ceremony in Birmingham after an extensive judging process led by industry bible Travel Trade Gazette, which saw agents rated by tour operators and other suppliers, and assessed by travel trade journalists.

TTG Editor Pippa Jacks said: "Our search for the nation’s best travel agents has taken us the length and breadth of the country, where we’ve uncovered countless stories of brilliant agents going the extra mile for their customers, giving great value, and serving their communities.

"What our new Top 50 list shows is that travel retailing in 2016 is a vibrant and successful business sector, and that – particularly on the high street – agents continue to prove their worth by delivering phenomenal customer service to their customers.

"We had our work cut out to decide the winners from a huge list of 500 contenders, and the 80 stores and businesses that made it to the shortlist stage should be extremely proud. Huge congratulations to every agency that earned a place on our prestigious list."
