Denmark’s Mangaard Travel Group has joined the GlobalStar network of travel management companies.
Ranked the 13th largest TMC in the Nordics last year, Mangaard is based in Aarhus and primarily serves SMEs.
GlobalStar has more than 50 TMC members globally including European representatives such as Germany’s Der Business Travel, the UK’s Take2Eton, VoyagExpert in France, and the Netherlands’ e-Business Travel.
It was named the fourth-largest TMC network in Europe last year, with €11.1 billion in global sales.
“Denmark is a key market for many of our clients operating in pharmaceuticals and technology. We have seen a growing demand in travel to Denmark from Europe and the USA,” said GlobalStar CEO James Stevenson.
“In welcoming Mangaard Travel Group as a partner, we strengthen our local market knowledge and experience as well as grow our network with another ambitious and talented travel business.”
Hans Mangaard, CEO of Mangaard Travel Group, added: “We have many customer relationships that go back to our start-up [in 1992] and several of our employees have been with us for 15-20 years and more. Joining GlobalStar extends our global reach and access to advanced technology, helping us further deepen our strong customer relationships.”
