The Focus Travel Partnership is a membership organisation where independent agencies, who have mainly corporate travel business customers combine their buying power to centrally negotiate optimum commercial terms. These range from centrally negotiated and distributed air fares and commission, industry supplier commercial deals plus access to cutting edge technology solutions. The Partnership is Partner owned, creating an ethos of an organisation run by the partners for the partners. The Focus Travel Partnership has 60 independent TMCs (Travel Management Companies) as members who, combined, have a turnover of £1.2billion across all facets of their travel businesses. Negotiations are managed centrally by Focus’ Central team who have a large and varied experience having come from the corporate travel community and therefore understand the array and diversity of needs of the Focus Partners. Membership of the Focus Partnership is by invitation only and there are strict criteria which Travel Management Companies (TMCs) must meet in order to join the partnership, allowing us to cohesively work together to achieve our mutual goals.
