TravelOperations takes next big step into US market with new office in St. Louis, MO

TravelOperations has announced it is opening its first North American office. This expansion positions TravelOperations as one of the few back-office travel solutions providers with a solid worldwide presence. The team in St. Louis will serve both new and existing customers in the US and Canada and work closely with the established TravelOperations offices in Europe and Australia.

“This is an ambitious, strategic move for us,” says, Michael Holst Andersen, General Manager of TravelOperations. “We felt the time was right to set up a permanent base here. It’s a customer-led decision for us; thanks to our local presence we can establish even stronger and closer ties with our existing North American customers.

“Being global through local expertise, positions us to offer our future-proof, cloud-based and integrated back-office travel technology to present and new customers. This new office will fuel our ambition to be the leading global provider of back-office systems for both Corporate, International and SMB travel companies.”

To accommodate the complexity and requirements of large and global companies we offer our TravelOperations Enterprise solution. A strong and well proven solution being used by customers like FCM Travel Solutions and Corporate Traveller in North America.

The small and medium-sized business requires agility, scalable cost, integrated and ease of use mid and back-office solutions. We offer our TravelOperations Business solution. “A modern and fully cloud-based integrated solution, with a very short implementation time, at a fixed fee, a monthly subscription, that has proven to be a very attractive offer. We know it is attractive, because we have seen several US based travel agencies migrating to our solution within the last couple of months,” says Peter Holm, General Manager for TravelOperations Business. “With local presence, it will be an obvious choice of solution for the companies running on old legacy technology that want to future proof their business.”

Being seen to be part of the business community in the US was another important factor in TravelOperations decision. “We’ve always felt very welcome everywhere we go in North America,” says Michael, “and we want to be fully embedded and recognized as a leading player in this market. We recognize that there are huge opportunities here.”

“Although the Covid-19 crisis wasn’t the main driver of our decision, we are seeing many travel agents using this time as the perfect opportunity to upgrade and digitalize their back office to become more efficient. We offer a modern, future-proof technology solution that automates the entire travel process from order to customer payment. And, now we have experts on the ground to help travel companies across North America as they change for a better digitalized future.”
