History
2023: Smartway bought Travelmart
The Russian business travel service Smartway was bought by the Travelmart business tourism agency. The companies announced this deal in early April 2023. At the same time, the financial parameters of the agreement are not disclosed.
There are no changes in the management related to the deal - TravelMart founder Ivan Samoshin will continue to operate the company. The deal will not affect TravelMart customers: service for them will remain on the same terms. The online booking platform for VIP halls at vip-zal.ru airports has not entered the outline of the deal.
We are excited to be part of Smartway. Business travel is constantly changing: previously, the organization of business trips made bets on an individual approach, VIP service, so boutique agencies were in demand. Now companies are paying more and more attention to business scaling, automating and speeding up processes. Therefore, there was a need for an appropriate modern IT infrastructure that Smartway can provide, "said Travelmart founder and CEO Ivan Samoshin. |
