Mauritius Tourism Promotion Authority Enters Russian Market with AVIAREPS

Thursday, 09/10/2008

The Mauritius Tourism Promotion Authority (MTPA) is to extend its cooperation with the AVIAREPS Group, the world leader in airline and tourism marketing. AVIAREPS’ subsidiary in Moscow will be dedicated to handling all public relations matters relating to the Russian market on behalf of the Mauritius Tourism Promotion Authority.

All future activities will focus on promoting the island of Mauritius as a unique and exotic tourist destination. As well as commissioning the company to manage this new region, MTPA also renewed its existing contracts with the AVIAREPS subsidiaries in Germany (AVIAREPS Mangum) and Spain (Airline Center Spain S.L.).

“Russian travelers are increasingly demanding luxurious and exotic destinations. In fact, the MTPA has chosen a very favorable point in time to enter the Russian market –the AVIAREPS Group is very pleased to be entrusted by the Mauritius Tourism Promotion Authority to assist them in this challenge,” said Robert Obolgogiani, General Manager of AVIAREPS Russia.
