Company mission
To enrich the lives of people everywhere by connecting them to a world of things they'll love to do.
Our take
Holibob connects travel brands and operators, streamlining the process for online travel agents to curate tailored tours and experiences. Despite the travel industry's shift to online platforms in the past decade, the activities and experiences market has been slow to follow suit. Holibob addresses this gap by aggregating offerings through its technology, providing centralized resources for online travel agents.
The remarkable growth of Holibob since its 2019 launch underscores its efficacy in generating revenue for its clients. Notably, high-profile customers such as Secret Escapes and Flight Center have embraced the platform. Holibob has also strategically expanded its reach through the acquisition of TourismSOlved, a digital marketing platform for the travel industry.
With funding under its belt, Holibob is now directing its efforts towards refining its technological performance comprehensively. The overarching objective is to solidify its position in the market and attract even more top-tier travel brands seeking innovative solutions for their businesses.
