R Hotels, the hospitality management division of Ajman-based R Holding, will take part as hotel sponsor in the inaugural World Halal Travel Summit and Exhibition (WHTS15) in Abu Dhabi, UAE, later this month.

Poised to be the largest B2B halal travel exhibition in the world, WHTS15 will bring together specialists across all sectors including travel agents, hospitality groups, hoteliers, developers, tourism boards, and key international decision makers.

R Hotels will showcase its halal and family-friendly properties in the UAE, which include Ramada Hotel and Suites Ajman, Ramada Beach Hotel Ajman, Ramada Downtown Dubai, Hawthorn Suites by Wyndham JBR, and the newly-opened ibis Styles Jumeirah. Through its participation, R Hotels seeks to maximise opportunities and network with global travel and tourism professionals who specialise in this niche market.

Sumair Tariq, managing director, R Hotels, said: “R Hotels is proud to have taken a step further in tapping this growing segment by not only exhibiting, but also by being a hotel sponsor of WHTS15, as this is a great platform to promote our properties. The demand for Muslim-friendly travel options is set to increase in the coming years, and with our current hotel portfolio and two more properties in the pipeline, we are positive on establishing R Hotels as a key player in this market and cementing new partnerships locally and globally.”

The summit will take place from October 19 to 21 at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC). – TradeArabia News Service
