Dusit International has partnered with Vietnam’s Saigontourist Group to drive tourism development in Thailand and Vietnam through strategic promotions, enhanced services, and the creation of innovative tourism products.
Under the terms of the agreement, both companies will share technical expertise, experience, and best practices to help elevate the quality and effectiveness of tourism services in both countries; as well as to explore opportunities for joint hotel development and promote each other’s tourism offerings at major events, festivals, and travel fairs.
Saigontourist Group’s expansive portfolio of hotels, resorts, entertainment venues, and conference facilities across Vietnam welcomes thousands of Thai visitors each year. Likewise, Thailand is a popular destination for Vietnamese travellers.
In 2023 and the 1H2024, Saigontourist Travel Service Company arranged trips for approximately 15,400 Vietnamese tourists to experience Thailand’s top destinations, including Bangkok, Pattaya, Chiang Mai, and Phuket.
As a key player in hospitality education, with Dusit Thani College, The Food School, and Le Cordon Bleu Dusit Culinary School developing top talent for Dusit Hotels and Resorts and the industry at large, Dusit International and Saigontourist Group will also collaborate in education and training for tourism operations.
Gilles Cretallaz, COO, Dusit International, commented: “More than just a business agreement, this strategic alliance is a commitment to fostering mutual growth, cultural exchange, and sustainable development in the tourism sector. Our collaboration will undoubtedly lead to new opportunities and innovations, benefiting both our organisations and the tourism industries of Vietnam and Thailand.”
“I believe that through close collaboration and leveraging the growth potential of both groups, we will achieve outstanding success in tourism development, thereby contributing to the socio-economic advancement of both Vietnam and Thailand,” added Truong Duc Hung, general director, Saigontourist Group.
