Grenada Board of Tourism establishes representation in France
—————————————————————–
November 2009. (St. George’s, Grenada, WI)—The Grenada Board of
Tourism announced they have established representation in Paris,
France at World Travel Market, November 2009. DUXIN Marketing
will represent the Grenada Board of Tourism for the expanding
French market.
Research conducted via the Grenada Board of Tourism confirms and
points equally to the French interest in Grenada’s history
(having French colonial roots) and culture, traditional habits,
and shared moments with locals. Research further confirms that
the French economy has been less affected by the global recession
than most other European nations. Stayover arrivals from France
for 2009 are up by 5% when compared to the 2008 performance.
According to the Caribbean Tourism Organization, France has great
potential for long haul travelers because it is the 5th largest
outbound economy in the world and the 2nd largest European market
for long haul travellers. The Caribbean is also among the top ten
destinations for French travellers. Access to Grenada for French
nationals is enhanced also through the Paris-Miami flight by
American Airlines, which operates a daily non-stop flight from
Paris to Miami.
