The first quarter of 2024 has been exciting for us at RLA Global.
We've made significant strides with projects across Europe, Asia, Africa, and North America. Whether developing new luxury resorts on remote islands or creating mixed-use spaces in bustling cities, our work is diverse and impactful.
Simon Saunders, our VP of Strategic Health & Wellness, shares his excitement about our progress:
"A great start to the year with a mix of ongoing projects coming to fruition, and a pipeline of opportunities in key markets and new locations off the beaten track. It is both encouraging and exciting to witness new markets developing. We are working with an increasing number of clients who are looking to develop an overarching wellness concept for properties that enables them to offer a wide variety of inter-linked experiences that pervade throughout all departments, allowing the team at RLA Global to do what we do best in creating outstanding guest experiences and prioritizing ROI and financial performance."
Paul Boldy, our Managing Partner, is also pleased with the growing interest in the Middle East and Africa.
"The demand for Technical Services and Owner Representation in the Middle East and Africa is growing," he comments. "It's a strong sign of the market's confidence in our capabilities and commitment to delivering top-notch service."
Our Global CEO, Roger Allen, reflects on the quarter's success, noting the importance of our diverse project portfolio.
"The geographic spread of our projects and the diversity of our engagements reflect both the dynamic growth of new developments across most markets in 2024, while we have confidence our clients have in entrusting RLA Global with directing their hospitality investments," he says. "We are certainly very optimistic and bullish about the buoyancy in the tourism and hospitality market for the rest of 2024."
With such a dynamic start to the year, we at RLA Global are ready to tackle the challenges ahead, driving forward with innovation and excellence in the global hospitality industry.
