The company, leader in Online Distribution Management tools has established offices in Spain, France and Germany to assist in its international development strategy.

In July 2007 Rate Tiger announced its London headquarter for EMEA. During the past six months the technology specialist has revamped versions of its leading Rate Tiger suites RTShopper and RTAllocator in Pro/Lite versions and has been endorsed by Expedia’s certification program.

New appointments for the European markets include Sergio Panzera, Market Manager Italy and France, formerly of Trafalgar Management Services; Julia Huber, Market Manager Germany, formerly of the Austrian National Tourist Office; Georgina McLachlan, Market Manager UK, formerly from Aviance UK LTD and soon Rate Tiger will be announcing a Market Manager for Spain.

Rate Tiger has also extended its sales team following the appointment of Keith Povah as Director of Sales in the summer. The company is supported by Assistant Director of Sales Yvonne Le Tourneur, reporting to Povah and two UK Sales Managers, Sunaina Jagtiani and Natasha Singh.

These appointments continue Rate Tiger’s bold expansion plans into the global hospitality market and builds on the company’s international business strategy.

The organisation has completed its restructure of its market management division that will enhance the portfolio by engaging directly with online travel agents, hospitality technology providers and hoteliers.

“With the immense growth of hotels being sold online, hoteliers are having difficulty keeping up, and managing their rates effectively. With evolving online medias, it’s important for our customers to maintain the competitive edge in the hospitality industry,” said Andrew Morsi, founder. “We made a commitment in 2007 and we are building on our success and achievements each day. Rate Tiger is committed to developing best practice in the online hospitality industry as proven with the endorsement from Expedia.”

“We have sourced market managers who understand their field and our customers,” says Keith Povah. “At Rate Tiger we endeavour to find professionals who are experts to assist in the development of the company, our product’s brand and delivering insight to our customers. We have ambitious plans in 2008 which will show us to be leading in online hospitality technology.”
