Sandals Resorts and Barrhead Travel join forces

Barrhead Travel has joined forces with Sandals Resorts to introduce ten co-branded stores across Scotland.


The special stores will be in place for 18 months, each with a dedicated Sandals specialist on hand to deal with enquiries.


Each specialist will wear branded uniform and have co-branded business cards.


In-store Sandals branding will consist of branded desks, TV screen, window display cards and wall arches.


Barrhead Travel’s superstore in Glasgow features a mock-up of one the Caribbean company’s Rondoval ‘Love Nest’ suites.


Visitors to any of the co-branded Scottish outlets will receive a £100 discount when booking a butler level suite at one of the all-inclusive company’s Luxury Included resorts when booked by July 31.


Sandals business development manager for the Scottish region, Gary Atwell, said: “I have worked closely with Barrhead Travel over the past 14 years, developing the Sandals brand and helping to create a strong and successful business relationship that has resulted in the continued growth of Sandals bookings year on year.


“This new co-branded partnership is the perfect way to boost our mutual growth in Scotland.”


Barrhead Travel chief executive, Sharon Munro, said: “Sandals have been a key partner of Barrhead Travel for many years now. It’s a relationship that will be further strengthened by the presence in our stores and we look forward to introducing many new customers to their high-quality resorts in 2015 and beyond.”
