Hays Travel has announced that the group’s total transaction value (TTV) has reached £3billion for the first time in its history, one month ahead of the end of its financial year on 30 April 2025.
Dame Irene Hays shared in a video message that all employees will receive £100 for every year they have worked at Hays Travel, while personal travel consultants and Explorer franchisees will receive a shopping voucher for every year they have been a Hays Travel member, as a thank you for their loyalty and support.
Dame Irene Hays, owner and Chair of Hays Travel:
“Since Hays Travel began trading 45 years ago, we have always remained true to our vision and values, and our strategic priorities: our people, our customers, and the communities where we operate. As I have said many times, our success is down to our people, which is why achieving this £3billion milestone is an opportunity to demonstrate just how much their excellent work and unwavering loyalty are appreciated.”
Lenore Mason, General Manager for Recruitment and People Services said:
“This is my 37th year with Hays Travel – I feel so fortunate to work alongside brilliant people, for a company that values me and has continued to grow in the region where I grew up. Although Hays Travel has seen many changes over the years it has always been totally committed to its values and people. Today’s news is exciting for everyone and just shows how much we are appreciated!”
