Internationally recognised travel and event solutions provider ATPI Group is celebrating its inclusion in Travel Weekly’s 2024 Power List – a specialised list commemorating and ranking the industry’s top Travel Management Companies.
Compiled by one of the travel industry’s most influential and coveted B2B news resources, the Travel Weekly Power List is an annual survey configuring the top-performing travel retailers from across the industry.
Inclusion in the 2024 Power List is determined by 2023 end-of-year travel sales with a minimum threshold of USD 110 million required – ATPI’s 2023 sales amassed USD 1.7 billion.
The 2024 Power List was Travel Weekly’s biggest yet, with 72 agencies featured.
In its first appearance on the Power List, ATPI ranked at an impressive 17th place in its debut alongside some of the world’s most recognised premier travel companies – highlighting the incredible 12 months the firm has had and its commitment to excellence and innovation.
ATPI’s senior management team attributes 2023’s success to new customer wins and fresh opportunities, primarily within its specialist Energy and Marine Travel business lines due to increased activity within the sector.
Additionally, ATPI experienced significant organic growth from existing clients and maintained its track record of remarkable client retention – areas which reflect the strong partnerships and trust that ATPI has built with customers.
Discussing ATPI’s commendable inclusion in the list, Senior Director – Sales and Account Management North America, Ettienne De Swardt, commented: “It is an incredible privilege to be included in this year’s Travel Weekly Power List but one that reflects the work our team has put in to develop our services and expand our portfolio.
“Last year, the global ATPI team reached new heights thanks to our strong client relationships – both old and new – and our growing reputation across international markets.
“Our placement on the list is a well-deserved recognition of our efforts and teamwork over the last 18 months.
Ranking so high on this list next to some of the biggest names in international travel is a massive achievement and one that we at ATPI are proud of.
“We have now set our sights on building on this to support our path of growth and success.”
Tracking the sales of travel agencies for inclusion in the list for 30+ years, the 2024 Power List featured giants such as Booking Holdings, Expedia Group, and American Express Global Business Travel taking the top three spots.
