Six agencies, representing $76.4 million in preferred partner sales, have come into the TravelSavers Canada fold. The new additions join the more than $10 million added through affiliations earlier this year, putting TravelSavers on track to surpass $100 million in new business in 2026.
According to the announcement, the choice to join the TravelSavers network reflects the appeal of combining expert strategic guidance with a close-knit community committed to helping agency owners succeed on their own terms.
“Independent agencies want the freedom to develop their businesses according to their own vision, but that doesn’t mean they want to do it alone,” said Jane Clementino, Senior Vice President and General Manager, TravelSavers Canada. “What truly sets us apart is the personalized guidance our Business Analysts provide. They take the time to understand each agency’s individual goals, challenges and opportunities. Then they partner closely with owners to strengthen performance and maximize profitability.”
Joining the network are:
- Groupe Voyages VP in Dorval, Quebec.
- Travel Potions in Carstairs, Alberta.
- Ali Travel in Richmond Hill, Ontario.
- Sea Courses in Burlington, Ontario.
- Guide Me Away in Vancouver, British Columbia.
Michelle Gammond, Owner of Travel Potions, told TravelSavers that finding the right network meant choosing a partner that understood her ambitions for the agency and could support its next stage of growth.
“When I started Travel Potions, I knew exactly what I wanted it to be - a boutique agency with experienced, knowledgeable advisors and a really strong focus on the human side of travel,” said Gammond. “My goal isn’t to build the biggest agency. I want to build an exceptional one, so I needed a partner that understood what we were building and could help us grow without losing what makes Travel Potions different.”
For Lia Hershkovitz, Founder and CEO of Guide Me Away, whose travel industry career spans more than 20 years, including seven years in agency leadership, joining TravelSavers Canada signals an ambitious new phase of growth for the agency.
“As Guide Me Away entered a new chapter as a fully independent agency, I felt it was the right time to make a change and look at what kind of network would best support where we are today and where we want to go next,” said Hershkovitz.
