Travel management company TAG Group has agreed to acquire California-based production travel specialist Atlantis Travel.
UK-based TAG, which specialises in managing travel for the entertainment sector, said the acquisition “naturally fits” into its ever-expanding growth strategy. Financial details of the deal have not been revealed.
“With expertise in handling the fast-paced and ever-changing needs of production travel worldwide, Atlantis Travel has established itself as a trusted partner in the entertainment industry,” said TAG chief operating officer Gabrielle Carr. “While we have been working closely with Atlantis Travel as their ticketing partner for several years, we are incredibly excited to now acquire their full business.”
She added: “This acquisition enables us to combine our strengths and resources, further enhancing our offerings and service portfolio.”
As part of the merger Atlantis Travel will become an extension of TAG’s US production team. According to the companies, this will enable the two businesses to “identify synergies and focus on areas of improvement” from both brands.
Scott Gill, who co-founded Atlantis Travel in 1980, added: “Today marks a new chapter for our travel agency as we proudly announce the sale of our business to TAG.
“With our entertainment clientele and the incredible TAG team, we are confident that this collaboration will bring forth a host of new benefits and opportunities for our valued clients and employees,” he said.
