Japanese Travel Agency Taps Water in Shanghai

9-Dec-2004 - |
The Nippon Travel Agency Co Ltd, the third largest tour agency of Japan, launched the first Japanese solely-owned tour operations in Shanghai, temporarily for employees from local Japanese-funded companies and Sino-Japan joint ventures, today's Laodong Daily reported.
Although ordinary local citizens cannot sign up for the tour groups with the agency for the time being, workers from local Japanese-funded companies and joint ventures can join the group, said an industry analyst.
Currently, most local overseas-invested travel agencies act as 'wholesalers' of tourist products, such as tour itineraries, hotel booking and other services, while don't serve individual travelers or organize package tours.
However, the new Japanese travel agency is an exception, planning to receive 80,000 tourists next year and more than 100,000 by 2007.
To date, China has had five wholly-owned overseas travel agencies and 13 joint ventures. |
