Travellanda, the wholesale travel company in the UK, has appointed two new sales and business development managers to help it expand into the Chinese and Latin American (LATAM) markets.

They are Wenxia Ge (Julia), who is based in Beijing and will take responsibility for China and Erik Hillblad, who is based in Buenos Aires and will cover LATAM.

Denise Atkinson, head of sales, marketing and cross XMLs at Travellanda said: “With them on board, we will be much better placed to achieve our objective of increasing turnover by 10%, as we will have more capacity to help our loyal clients grow and to increase the number of new clients in these growing markets.”
