Travel Leaders Corporate and Travel Leaders Associate (franchise) locations won more than $175.5 million in new business travel accounts last year, according to Travel Leaders.

“Overall, we were pleased with the amount of new business and clientele we were able to add throughout 2013, and as we prepare to celebrate our five-year anniversary, we are fully engaged in initiatives that will continue allowing us to be more innovative and more nimble than our competitors – to the ultimate benefit to our clients,” said David Holyoke, Travel Leaders corporate president.

“From the business travel consulting offered to our associates on a one-on-one basis to the award-winning resources that are part of our Business Travel Center of Excellence, we have seen our Travel Leaders members continue to become the travel management company of record for more and more companies in their local area,” said Roger E. Block (pictured above, left) of Travel Leaders franchise Group.

Travel Leaders said the $175.5 million figure was conservative and based on voluntary quarterly reporting of new business.
