1000 Mile Travel Group (1000MTG), a pioneering travel host agency, has unveiled a groundbreaking self-branded option for Australian travel agencies, offering a unique blend of independence and robust support. This innovative model allows travel businesses to operate under their distinct brands while tapping into 1000MTG’s extensive resources, industry expertise, and global partnerships.

Lauren Gray, General Manager of 1000MTG Australia, shared her excitement: “We’re thrilled to empower travel agencies with this new option. It enables them to grow their business under their own brand identity while benefiting from 1000MTG’s global buying power and comprehensive support services.”

Nicola Veltman, CEO and Co-Founder of 1000MTG echoed this sentiment, highlighting the strategic importance of this offering. “After years of requests for an independent model, extensive research, and unique creation, we’ve decided that now is the perfect time to launch this. Our goal is to support internal business owners and other interested parties who qualify,” Veltman explained.

To be eligible for the self-branded option, agencies must meet specific criteria, including maintaining at least two members and operating in a non-corporate niche. The corporate technology offerings will remain exclusive to the fully branded 1000MTG model.

This new offering underscores 1000MTG’s commitment to fostering a supportive and flexible environment for travel advisors. It allows them to differentiate themselves in a competitive market while leveraging 1000MTG’s robust infrastructure. This includes access to exclusive deals and a network of industry partnerships.

Lauren Gray emphasized the significance of this milestone: “We look forward to supporting and nurturing the entrepreneurial spirit within our beloved industry. We are ecstatic to provide a home for these innovative agencies at 1000MTG.”

The self-branded option is designed to cater to the needs of travel businesses looking to establish their own identity while benefiting from the support of a global leader in the travel industry. This initiative will revolutionize how travel agencies operate in Australia, providing them with the tools and resources necessary to thrive in an ever-evolving market.
