Travel service provider RCI has expanded its presence in the Middle East with the opening of an office in Dubai Internet City. The new sales center operation opened in March and went live to members in the region in mid-April.
RCI has a strong Member base in the Middle East that for the past ten years has been serviced by the Cairo, Egypt office. Members that live in the Gulf states, such as the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, and Qatar, found long distance calling to the Cairo office a hindrance.
The new Dubai office will service these Arab members as well as several thousand non-resident members residing in the Gulf region who were previously serviced by RCI's India operation.
As part of the RCI Expansion Markets region, the Dubai operation will eventually do more than service RCI Members. The second phase of the expansion will incorporate a business development (B2B) function that is expected to bring new affiliations from the area into the RCI fold.
RCI is a global provider of leisure travel services to businesses and consumers, with market leadership positions in vacation property exchange, rental and resort management. As a growth partner to its business clients, RCI leverages core competencies in networks, technology, brand and product development and customer service to deliver vacation experiences for travelers around in the world. — (menareport.com)
