Spain Tourism Office – GCC has appointed Aviareps, a global tourism representation leader, as its joint marketing and public relations representative in Arabia.

The appointment, which comes into immediate effect, is part of an initiative spearheaded by the regional tourism office, responsible for marketing of Spain as a tourist destination in the region, to expand its engagement and promotional activities within Saudi Arabia.

As part of the initiative, Aviareps will be developing and implementing a slew of highly targeted marketing and public relations activities that both engage and educate Saudi Arabia’s outbound tourism professionals so that they can develop innovative and enticing holiday itineraries to Spain that showcase the country’s unique attractions, culture, natural landscapes and lifestyle experiences.  

Daniel Rosado, Director of the Spanish Tourism Office for the Middle East said: “This is the first time for Spain Tourism to appoint a joint representative in Saudi Arabia and is symbolic of the importance and dedication we have for further engaging and developing our connections with the Saudi market. We are very excited to collaborate with Aviareps in this regard and confident in their expertise to position Spain as a year-round travel destination of choice for Saudis, once it is safe to do so.”

Glenn Johnston, Vice President Middle East & Global Public Affairs, Aviareps, said: “It is an honour to be associated with Spain Tourism and be entrusted to promote one of the world’s most popular and exciting tourism destinations in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. In anticipation of international travel coming back online for travellers from Saudi Arabia, we look forward to rolling out a number of marketing and promotional initiatives in the months to come.”
