Agency owners that join Hickory can take advantage of our 24/7 reservation services, international sourcing opportunities, international rates, preferred rate hotel program, revenue enhancement programs, professional services, travel technology, automation, and multiple networking opportunities. This gives agency partners the economies of scale required to remain economically viable in today's multifaceted Travel Management arena. Hickory provides a value proposition unmatched in the industry.
Hickory recognized early on the importance of globalization, and created one of the first international agency networks - First Travel Managment. Similarly, we saw the explosion of travel management in Latin and South America, and responded by creating HOLA (Hickory of Latin America - recently renamed "L'alianxa"). We are proud to be part of one of the most influential travel networks on the planet, including GlobalStar and L'alianxa. Our global reach extends to nearly every continent.
Hickory is now part of the publicly-traded AMLH, Inc (American Leisure Holdings) and together with TraveLeaders (a national agency with a very strong and solid presence in Florida and California), we form the AMLH Travel Division, where we continue to hone our craft, using our direct agency involvement to refine and adjust our services to maximize the benefit to every agency partner.
We hope we have peaked your interest and you will share our mission to keep branching out to new and exciting ventures!
