"The Carlson-Rezidor and AFI partnership recognises two icons within their respective industries, both of whom are promoting Africa as a world class creative destination," says Han Oldenburger, regional director Sub-Saharan Africa Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group.
The synergy also reinforces AFI's positioning of African fashion on a global scale as the Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group is currently expanding its African footprint with new openings set for Lusaka, Zambia and Tete and Maputo in Mozambique, between 2012 and 2013.
