WHAT IS TRAVEL TRADE?

Travel trade at its fundamental level is information sharing.  

Destination Management Organizations (DMOs) supply information about their location via a complex distribution network. 

Information Examples: 

  • lodging
  • experiences 
  • transportation options 
  • attractions and more 

An umbrella of business buyers organizes these travel products for consumers (B2C) and/or via other businesses (B2B). 

Business Buyer Examples: 

  • tour operators 
  • travel agents 
  • receptive operators 
  • wholesalers 

Through travel trade, NMTD is looking to bridge the gap between destination marketing and experience opportunity.
