Expansion
Operator looks for new offices
BALES is on the hunt for new premises as it looks to expand the business.Managing director Mandy Nickerson said the need for larger offices was getting desperate. “People regarded us an an Egypt and escorted tours specialist but we have expanded to become a truly worldwide operator,” she said.
Bales will look in a seven-mile radium of its Dorking office as it aims to keep as many existing staff as possible. Meanwhile, Bales is aiming to raise public awareness of the brand.
“More people are travelling long haul these days and have more disposable income. We want to increase our profile,” she said.
