TravelMole USA appoints CEO
Fran Kiradjian has been appointed CEO for TravelMole USA.
She brings extensive experience in the travel industry, especially the hospitality sector.
As founder of the CCRA Preferred Hotel Programme, Kiradjian spent 13 years developing the business, forging relationships around the world with travel agents and hotel chains as well as independent properties. The programme became the largest in North America, served up to more than 18,000 travel agencies and ultimately, a very profitable multi-million dollar enterprise.
Kiradjian recently participated in the sale of Reservation Center & CCRA to Onelink Corporation.
After spending a year as its president and CEO, she left the company 18 months ago to pursue the launch of The Kiradjian Group. This is a consulting firm which provides strategic solutions to travel & tourism marketers around the world, including technology and distribution marketing largely in the hospitality sector.
TravelMole CEO Charles Kao said: “She is creative and proven in sales, marketing and management. She has a passion for the travel industry and intimately understands what makes it tick. When it comes to networking, marketing and sales, Fran excels.”
TravelMole’s global reach includes the US, UK, Australia and Asia.
