Major win for Geelong Travel

Geelong Travel is celebrating major wins at Scenic Group’s national awards in Sydney.

The Belmont-based company, led by Stuart Coffield, was awarded two prestigious honors: 2024 Highest Sales Single Location Australia-Wide and 2024 Highest Agency Sales VIC State Winner at Scenic Group’s 9th Annual Night of Stars.

Scenic Group’s director of travel and commercial sales Emma Davie praised the local company’s outstanding achievement.

“Geelong Travel’s success is driven by their commitment to high-quality integrated campaigns, client expos and events, exclusive charter and group departures, which have grown their business significantly during 2024,” she said.

“With an unwavering passion and dedication, Stuart and his team continue to excel in client service and bookings across the Scenic Group portfolio of luxury ocean, river and land products.”

Coming off the huge success of Geelong Travel’s recent expo, which attracted 5000 people, these awards cement Geelong Travel’s position as Australia’s leading independent travel agency.

Mr Coffield, who established the business just over 30 years ago and now runs it with 20 dedicated team members, said the resurrection of the travel industry and the surge in demand after the COVID-19 pandemic had been exhilarating.

“We are very proud of these awards,” he said.

“We’ve always had growth every year, but with Scenic, it’s gone to a new level – we’ve seen a 50 percent increase in sales of their products in the last year. It’s wonderful to see so many people wanting to travel again and experiencing the once-in-a-lifetime, luxury experiences that Scenic provides.”
