Carey Launches Alliance Network
JULY 19, 2007. Carey revolutionizes chauffeured transportation reservation processes by fully disclosing service provider information Washington DC (July 18, 2007) -- Carey International Inc. is cementing its position as the only true global chauffeured transportation brand through the launch of the Carey Alliance Network and a major change in its business practices. The Carey Alliance Network is an extended network of trusted partners that operates in locations outside of the 250 major business centers worldwide serviced by Carey branded franchise operations. In a first for the industry, Carey has provided clear identification of these operators, and has branded the network of providers under the Carey Alliance name. The Carey Global Franchise Network and the Carey Alliance Network combined offers service in 550 Cities, and 65 Countries worldwide.
Carey customers now are informed when booking services whether they will be serviced by a Carey branded operation, or a partner company in the Carey Alliance Network. It is common practice in the chauffeured services industry for companies to claim that they have a worldwide network and not to disclose to the customers when services are outsourced to an affiliate company.
"Carey is the leader in the chauffeured transportation industry with over eighty years of knowledge and expertise in providing comprehensive solutions to our clients," said Gary Kessler, Carey President & CEO. "Our global corporate clients naturally assume complete information is always provided, so by providing information regarding the Carey Global Franchise Network and The Carey Alliance Network on every booking, we are definitely meeting that need."
Carey will debut a new advertising campaign, "A World of Difference" in conjunction with its participation in the National Business Travel Association International Convention & Exposition in Boston, July 22-25.
