Tui Group is initiating a significant expansion into Africa by introducing a new upscale hotel brand. This move is marked by the opening of the first Mora property in Zanzibar this summer. The introduction of Mora is part of a broader strategy to establish eight new hotels across Africa, reaching into The Gambia, Senegal, Tanzania, Kenya, and Cape Verde.
The Mora property in Zanzibar is the first of Tui’s upscale hotel ventures on the African continent. This strategically planned expansion will not only strengthen Tui’s presence in these regions but also diversify the accommodation options available to travellers.
Plans for the expansion include establishing a pipeline of eight new hotels across key destinations. By focusing on locations in The Gambia, Senegal, Tanzania, Kenya, and Cape Verde, Tui aims to tap into the unexplored potential of these vibrant regions.
Tui is set to diversify its offerings in Africa through various brands, including Tui Blue and Tui Suneo. While Tui Blue aims to provide a premium experience, Tui Suneo targets budget-conscious travellers, thereby catering to a wide range of customer preferences.
The group’s managing director, Artur Gerber, highlights their aim to create new hotel experiences in Africa, stating, “With our variety of hotel brands, we will create new hotel experiences in Africa for different target groups – from price-conscious holidays in a Tui Suneo hotel via our global brand Tui Blue to a new luxury experience with The Mora.” This diverse approach underscores Tui’s dedication to enhancing the hospitality landscape in Africa and supporting local communities.
Tui’s strategic expansion into Africa with its new hotel brands signifies a promising development for the continent’s hospitality sector.
