Holiday Extras buys Chauntry
Holiday Extras has acquired Chauntry, a company which provides booking systems to airports and car park operators worldwide.
The deal comes days after it bought the brand and website of Purple Parking.
The specific terms of the Chauntry purchase were not disclosed, but Holiday Extras CEO Matthew Pack said it was an ‘investment in our future’.
"This is a friendly acquisition of a business that Holiday Extras has enjoyed a long-term partnership with," he said.
"We will be investing in the team and software to develop Chauntry’s market leading position. We are excited by the prospect of Chauntry now being part of the Holiday Extras Group. By adding its services, people and expertise to our teams, we will be widening our offer to partners, whilst capitalising on the mutual benefits in enhanced performance that tighter integration brings. "
Chauntry operates at over 80 airports worldwide.
Holiday Extras already offers front-end white-label and fulfilment solutions to partners through its European-wide distribution network and says it will now be set to deliver end to end booking technology, plus distribution services and operating system support for airports and car park operators worldwide.
