Kuoni Travel
KUONI TRAVEL LTD, which has grown into not only the
largest travel company in Switzerland, but also one of the leading travel
organisations in the world, was founded by Alfred Kuoni in 1906. Alfred
Kuoni was born in Switzerland in 1874 and whilst he spent a few years
working abroad, three of his brothers opened a freight forwarding agency in
Zurich. On returning to Switzerland in 1905 he entered his brothers' trade
and soon suggested the addition of a travel agency to the already prospering
freight business. Today Kuoni employs over 7,500 staff in 300 offices around
the world. Kuoni in the UK is a wholly owned subsidiary of Kuoni Travel Ltd
in Switzerland. |
