Travel firm Yatra is expanding its offline presence in tier 2 cities. It added three franchise outlets at Mangalore, Amritsar and Bhilai this week taking the total tally to 29. Dhruv Shringi, CEO and Co-founder at Yatra.com, said “These cities are emerging as an important travel hub not only for leisure but for business traffic as well. These markets lacked abundance of travel agents and outlets.

Thus, launching our franchise in these cities, we aim to fill this gap and cater to the fast growing needs of the market.” Yatra Travel World stores offer a range of products and services which include domestic and international holiday packages, air ticketing, hotel reservations, travel insurance, cruises and rail products.
