Working with the Travel Trade
VisitAberdeenshire’s Travel Trade Ready Programme helps local businesses connect with the travel trade and reach new markets. Through practical webinars and workshops, you’ll learn what travel trade buyers look for, how they work, and how to create products that appeal to them.
How we engage with the Travel Trade
We actively promote Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire to key travel trade partners, from specialist golf tour operators to cruise excursion companies, encouraging them to feature our destination in their itineraries.
Our team meets buyers at major trade shows, hosts familiarisation (FAM) visits, and highlights local experiences that match their clients’ needs. If you have a travel trade friendly product, you can be involved where relevant by hosting visits on a complimentary or subsidised cost basis.
