Dadabhai Travel, one of the Middle East’s most prominent travel management companies, has renewed an exclusive agreement with global travel technology company Sabre Corporation to continue facilitating travel through its industry-leading platform.
 
Dadabhai Travel has been using Sabre technology exclusively for more than 10 years, which has helped expand its presence in the Middle East while delivering a superior service to its corporate customers. The company now plans to broaden its offerings to customers across other markets in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region.
 
“Dadabhai has proven its position as a leading regional travel company,” said Roshan Mendis, Sabre Travel Network senior vice president, EMEA and APAC. “By providing customers access to competitive travel products and services, it has successfully transformed from a Bahrain-based travel agency into a strong regional player. The company now has a clear roadmap and is rapidly expanding into a number of exciting areas of the Middle East. With Sabre’s substantial network in the region, we are best-placed to help the company scale and expand through the latest technology and consultancy. It’s an exciting collaboration and we look forward to a continuing partnership with Dadabhai to provide a seamless travel experience to customers across the continent.”
 
In the past three years, Dadabhai Travel has increased its footprint across the GCC countries opening several new offices across the UAE and Saudi Arabia, bringing its total to 17 bases across the region.
 
“Sabre’s solutions and leadership in areas such as mobile, personalisation and data have helped us achieve our ambitious expansion plans and successfully fulfil increasing traveler expectations over the past decade,” said Aziz Gilitwala, managing director Dadabhai Travel. “As we continue our expansion into GCC and APAC countries, we will rely on Sabre’s technology and global expertise to help us perform effectively and efficiently. Sabre is an innovative, trusted and vital supplier to us and we have become more competitive and relevant in the market with its support.”
 
This renewal provides Dadabhai Travel with continued access to Sabre’s portfolio of innovative technology across the region, including its industry-leading Sabre Red Workspace agency solution and the latest mobile, data analytics, personalization and automation capabilities. Using this technology, Dadabhai Travel is able to differentiate its offerings, compete more effectively and grow faster in the regions it serves. It also fulfils its commitment to enrich the customer experience through unrivalled service levels.
