We’re thrilled to announce that we now have a thriving community of 2,121 independent business owners worldwide - representing a 7% year-on-year increase.

This growth reflectS our unwavering commitment to equipping our business owners with industry-leading resources, innovative tools and technology, and unparalleled development opportunities - all grounded in a supportive, people-first culture.

Over the past 12 months alone, 297 new travel entrepreneurs have launched their businesses with Travel Counsellors, including over 100 individuals new to the travel industry. We’ve also experienced an increase in travel professionals joining our community, bringing over 1,000 years of combined experience from top brands in the leisure and business travel sectors.

Our trusted and unique business model empowers individuals, whether they’re already in the travel industry, returning to it, or completely new to the sector, to transform their lives by becoming business owners. The model accommodates a variety of working styles, from sole traders and family businesses to larger leisure and corporate businesses. In fact, in the UK, 59% of Travel Counsellors are now working together in TC Teams, a strategy that fosters innovation, supports new ways of working, and drives business growth.

Matt Harding, Director of Franchise Sales at Travel Counsellors, commented: “Our growth over the past year is a testament to the exceptional talent, passion, and dedication of our Travel Counsellors, who put customer care at the heart of everything they do. By leveraging our personal, digital technology platform, underpinned by strong connections and relationships, we empower talented individuals to build their own successful businesses.

“We’re committed to maintaining this momentum, ensuring every Travel Counsellor has the resources and opportunities they need to thrive and scale their business in a way that suits them. We look forward to seeing how our Travel Counsellors continue to innovate and succeed together, and we’re excited to help even more entrepreneurs launch their businesses with us in the year ahead.”
