bounds. But the industry as a whole is still largely unorganized. In this

scenario, what a customer really wants is a travel operator who can offer a

range of travel options and services under one roof. And that’s exactly

where Nilkanth Travels step in.

Nilkanth Travel snow plans to bring the world of trave l at your fingertips by

setting up a network of franchisees all over the country. Each of these

franchisees will offer a host of travel related services under one roof and in

the process, make travel a lot simpler for their customers.

A franchise is a business arrangement where the owner Nilkanth

Travels(the franchisor) of a business concept grants you (the franchisee)

the licensed right to own and operate a business based on the franchisor’s

business concept, using its trademark. The franchisor helps you (the

franchisee) start your business, providing training, assistance with, site

development and ordering inventory, advertising and marketing support.

A travel franchise offers you the chance to be your own boss, while

operating under the security of an established brand.

As a travel franchise you could see healthy profits like any established

travel company without spending years concentrating on building your own

brand to compete with the big boys in the industry.

WHY A FRANCHISEE?

There is need to reduce transaction costs and service turnaround times.

Overheads and expenses are increasing.

Smaller agents will find it difficult to compete.

Need for a Global Distribution Network with a wider reach.

Need to offer better online & self-service technology yet add value by the

human touch.

Change in Business Requirements needs transformation of a travel executive

to a travel counselor. Clients today require ancillary services and other

requirements beyond the standard.

Service which implies the transformation of the frontend travel staff into a

travel counselor, who can guide the client in a mature way.

Change of Product Mix - Customer want value added services and more

choice for fewer prices.

Franchising primary benefit is minimized risk. Since you will associate with

an already established organization, you need not worry about the risks of

starting up a new business. Franchisors sell a defined, proven business

format with products / services that have been sold successfully as

compared to a new independent business which is based on both an untried

idea and operation.
