Thailand Travel Mart Plus 2009 Opening Reception
The Thailand Travel Mart Plus Amazing Gateway to the Greater Mekong Subregion (TTM+ 2010) will be held from 8 – 10 September 2010, at the IMPACT Convention Center (Hall 9), Muang Thong Thani, Bangkok.
The most important development this year is the changing mix of buyers. For the first time, buyers from India will head the list. At last count, 70 buyers from all over India, representing many different emerging customer niche-markets such as weddings and Bollywood productions. They are among 341 buyers from 49 countries registered. Apart from India, the other large buyer delegates are from the USA (26), United Kingdom (24), Russia (22), and Korea (16) and as well as new buyers from Brazil, Mexico, UAE, Turkey, Lithuania, and Kazakhstan.
Sellers meet Buyers (Thailand Travel Mart Plus, Bangkok)
The buyers will be meeting with 428 registered sellers from various business categories such as hotels and resorts, tour operators and travel agents, eco and adventure, wellness and spa, airlines, entertainment/theme parks/culture products, golf courses, associations, other travel services and the Greater Mekong Subregion/ NTOs.
According to TAT Governor Mr Suraphon Svetasreni, “This year’s TTM Plus is very important for us because it comes as part of our recovery programme from the recent political unrest. It is also part of our strategy to diversify the sources of visitor arrivals and expose Thailand and the GMS region to new buyers from countries and regions which could deliver promising results in the future.”
Business Networking (Thailand Travel Mart Plus, Bangkok)
From 11 September onwards, several complimentary post-tours are being organised by TAT and the private sector to take buyers and the media to Thailand’s world-renowned natural beauty and rich cultural heritage.
The Thailand Travel Mart Plus is the country’s premier annual trade event designed to promote travel and tourism to Thailand and its neighbours in the Greater Mekong Subregion. One of the primary objectives of the TTM Plus is to provide a platform for Thailand’s small and medium sized entrepreneurs (SMEs) to find a market for their products and services on the international stage.
