Review Travel to see turnover rocket following acquisition

Review Travel has propelled its business growth with the acquisition of hotel and venue booking specialist, Executive Status - adding an estimated £2m in annual turnover.

The acquisition will bolster the company’s bespoke business travel offering, with the six-strong Executive Status team bringing years of expertise and contacts in the conference and event travel sector.

Manchester-headquartered Executive Status will relocate to Review Travel’s Wilmslow office, with founder Linda Cronshaw taking up the position of director. Linda will be tasked with raising and improving Review Travel’s profile in the meetings, incentive, conferencing and events market.

Review Travel, which currently employs 17 staff members across its Cheshire, Lancashire and Hertfordshire offices, achieved a record turnover of £10.7million in 2015. The business recently launched an aspirational rebrand, as it focuses on providing intelligent business travel solutions to its UK-wide client base.

Christian Gleave, CEO of Review Travel, commented: “Not only will this acquisition complement our service and extend our expertise, but increased buying power will also provide far greater cost-saving options for clients.

“Linda and her team are a perfect fit for Review Travel, bringing strong expertise, brilliant connections and huge enthusiasm for what they do.”

Linda Cronshaw, added: “Being part of the Review Travel team allows us to combine our expertise to offer the complete business travel service. It’s truly exciting to be able to offer this to current clients.”

Review Travel will continue to seek further acquisition opportunities that strengthen its highly competitive, tailored business travel offering.
