As a result operational profitability was 4

It does not change the coach of a team that WINS.

The news was announced at a seminar in internal.

The questions had not missed on the fate of the CEO of Marmara, which celebrates this year its sixty-eight years. Since the merger between the German TUI tourism division and the British First Choice in 2007, Marmara, subsidiary of the latter since 2000, is part of this European giant TUI Travel, in the same way that the Group new frontiers, held his side by TUI. Pragmatic, the English branch of TUI Travel decided to preserve this beautiful scheduling as Marmara continued to record excellent results despite the crisis.

As a result, operational profitability was 4.04. "Hard, when it became leader, it is to keep its place", observes however Hervé Vighier in an interview to the "echoes". No question, therefore, in a context of uncertainty, lower the guard. For 2010, the pattern of Marmara, bolstered in its fixed position two objectives: "keep our market share" and "improve our profitability."

The trend is, for the time, favourable with a "slight increase" sales for the winter season and a "double-digit growth" for the summer, this season for offers "first minute". To boost its activity "packages", Marmara development particularly on its clubs and its development on the long-range over-water, limited in number of destinations but with a goal of high volumes. The company positions itself thus strongly on Mauritius and the Dominican Republic. "For the long-range over-water, whenever you can decline our model, on the make", prevents Hervé Vighier, assuming that this will mean strengthening cooperation with Corsair, Nouvelles Frontières company. The CEO of Marmara does not hide that the Spain is a priority on the medium-haul, the market share of travel since at this stage of 13.

To implement its strategy, the leader will continue to rely in particular on his son Florian (thirty years). Current Director of the tour operating Marmara, but in fact expanded role, the latter must be appointed soon.
