Raffles International is pleased to announce the opening of a Global Sales Office in Shanghai.
The new office is located in Raffles City Shanghai, along Xizang Road Central. Raffles International is the hotel management arm of Raffles Holdings, a subsidiary of CapitaLand Limited which developed Raffles City Shanghai.
According to the World Tourism Organisation, China's outbound tourism has been growing rapidly since the mid-1990s at an average of 21% a year and is expected to grow from the current 10 million people a year to 50 million by 2010. The new Global Sales Office in Shanghai strategically positions Raffles International to further penetrate China's huge potential outbound market.
Joining Raffles International as Global Sales Manager in Shanghai is Ms Angela Zhou. Ms Zhou will focus on increasing outbound business from China to Raffles International hotels worldwide. Raffles International currently manages two hotels in China, namely Swissôtel Beijing and Swissôtel Dalian. Ms Annie Yang, Regional
Senior Sales responsible for marketing these two hotels, will also be working from Raffles International's Global Sales Office in Shanghai.
