Dubai, UAE, 2021-Feb-18 — /Travel PR News/ — Jumeirah Group has announced the appointment of Connect Worldwide (CWW) as its global sales agent in India. The partnership will include sales and marketing management for clients from the corporate, MICE and leisure segments, and support services for the luxury hotel group from the Indian market.

Jumeirah Group is a global luxury hotel company and member of Dubai Holding, a diversified global company with operations in 13 countries and 130 billion worth of assets across 10 sectors, including hospitality as well as leisure and entertainment.

Its latest addition to the Dubai portfolio, Jumeirah Living Marina Gate, offers the elevated hospitality synonymous with the brand to guests looking to enjoy longer stays in the city.

India has always been a strategic partner to the UAE, and Jumeirah Group embodies the Arabian hospitality much loved by the Indian market, continuing to be the preferred choice for various a-list actors, businessmen, film makers, extravagant weddings, and more. MICE and corporate travel are also significant drivers of inbound tourism to the UAE, as trade increasingly flourishes between the countries. Business partnerships, healthcare, and tourism, which is reflected in the continuous rise in inbound Indian travellers to the UAE, is anticipated to grow further once travel restrictions ease.

We see Connect World wide’s appointment as a reflection of the immense efforts invested in this market, and as a further step to ensuring our exemplary offering is aligned with their unique needs, whether that’s for leisure, dining or family experiences or the crafting of unique, personalised stays. We see great potential in India – a market that has always appreciated the luxury hospitality that Jumeirah offers, and our attention to personal touches, especially when it comes to sentimental lifetime special events such as weddings. The decision to appoint Connect Worldwide as our sales partner in India signifies our continued focus on this region, as well as the promising future that lies ahead for the Jumeirah Group in India.”
