After a year of searching for the best of the best in Africa and the Indian Ocean, the stars of the tourism world gathered from across the region for a night of glitz and glamour at a gala ceremony in Dubai on 15 October 2023.
Rennies BCD Travel has once again been recognised for its excellence in the travel industry. The company has been awarded the prestigious Leading Travel Management Company in Africa for the second year in a row. And scooped the accolade of being voted South Africa’s Leading Travel Management Company, reaffirming its position as a trailblazer in the world of corporate travel solutions.
Other nominees in these categories included:
"We are absolutely thrilled and deeply honoured to be recognised as both Africa and South Africa's Leading Travel Management Company for 2023," said Reece Oakes, CEO of Rennies BCD Travel. "This momentous achievement underscores the dedication and hard work of our entire team, who consistently go above and beyond to ensure seamless, efficient, and tailored travel experiences for our clients. These awards are a testament to our
unwavering commitment to providing top-tier services that exceed expectations."
Rennies BCD Travel’s mission is to help people and companies travel smart and achieve more. This is what lies at the heart of the company’s strategy to improve its agility, flexibility and responsiveness in a shifting environment. The corporate travel customer experience depends on multiple parties, airlines, travel management companies, online booking and other service and technology providers, working together to optimise delivery. When ecosystem partners don’t work together to facilitate this provision, the programme suffers.
Successful distribution requires better content (that customers want), better displays (so customers can access it) and robust integration (so customers can fulfill strategic business objectives).
We focus our attention on providing choices that empower, not limit our business and our customers.

As the world becomes increasingly aware of the importance of sustainable travel, Rennies BCD Travel has taken proactive steps to reduce its environmental footprint. The company offers a comprehensive suite of sustainable travel options, including carbon offset programmes, eco-friendly accommodation choices, and transportation alternatives that minimise environmental impact.

In a world that is becoming increasingly mobile-centric, the company has invested in mobile solutions to enhance the traveller experience.
