&Beyond boosts sales team in UK

Following a number of changes in the structure of the sales team, designed to provide travel partners with an even more efficient service, &Beyond had confirmed Lucille Hattingh will be returning to her former role as sales executive for Great Britain. Hattingh will be supported in this role by Minaxi Mistry, &Beyond’s new UK-based sales representative for the region. Born and raised in the UK, Minaxi has a wealth of experience in the travel industry, beginning her career in tour operations some 22 years ago, specialising in selling African travel first at Tempo Travel and then at Southern Africa Travel. This was followed by seven years as team leader of the Africa division at Abercrombie & Kent, followed by a stint looking after the UK and then developing the Indian travel division at Mantis. Lucille and Minaxi’s key responsibilities will involve maintaining and growing &Beyond’s relationships with our trade partners in the UK. &Beyond is considered Africa’s Leading Responsible Tourism Company by the World Travel Awards.
