Lowcostbeds not sleeping on its success

Lowcostbeds, part of the Lowcosttravelgroup, sells from 47 countries.

Lowcostbeds, the Swiss-based trade bed bank, has seen an 80% growth of its international business in the trading year to October 2014. 

More than 65% of its two million passenger sales now come from outside the UK.

Commenting during this year’s ITB Asia, Adam Alford, managing director Asia Pacific, said: “‘We are tremendously encouraged by the early signs and gradually refining a leading position with future plans for growth across all Asia Pacific markets.  

“LCB, in a short time, has positioned itself as a firm player in an already active, demanding marketplace. Our unique approach has been extremely well received by our different travel partners throughout the region. 

“In addition, we are continuously adding content and ensuring a quick and efficient delivery to the market, which is already contributing to a significant impact in revenues. “

Lowcostbeds, part of the Lowcosttravelgroup, sells from 47 countries.

“We now have a team of local buyers in Thailand with plans to hire market managers specific to Asia,” Alford added.

“Our aim is to have 10,000 unique hotels by the end of this year in South-east Asia. We will continue to invest in more inventory, management and distribution, as we build a fully operational global business.”
