As the tourism world slowly gets on recovery mode, we are pleased to announce the Ahmedabad edition of the ‘India International Travel Mart’ from the 10 & 11 March 2022. The earlier six events held earlier this year in Chennai, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Pune, Hyderabad and Kolkata saw a tremendous response from the travel trade fraternity.
The pandemic has affected the tourism industry hugely and as the industry attempts to get back into business mode, we are happy to add value to the recovery of the tourism industry. In the year of the celebrations of ‘Azadi ki Amrut Mahotsav’, India Tourism is happy to partner with the IITM Event this year to create awareness of India’s vast tourism potential.
India’s leading travel-media company Sphere Travelmedia & Exhibitions will organize the ‘India International Travel Mart’ (IITM) in Ahmedabad from the 10 – 11 March 2022 at Shree Shakti Greens and Convention Centre| Near Vaishnodevi Circle, Beside KD Hospital, Ahmedabad – 382 421

IITM is India’s premier trade exhibition that brings travel, tourism, hospitality, leisure and other related industries under a roof. It is aimed at bringing the industry, face-to-face with the travel trade, corporate buyers and the end-customers. The event will see the participation of travel agents/tour operators, DMC, hotels and resorts, national tourism offices, technology platforms, online travel portals, etc.
It will be a proud moment for Sphere Travelmedia & Exhibitions as it completes twenty successful years of providing the travel–trade industry and discerning buyers an opportunity to do business. With 100 participants from various travel-trade organizations and tourism boards from 15 Indian states, IITM will showcase a variety of spheres such as pilgrimages, adventures, culture and heritage, beaches, hills and many more.
Sphere TravelMedia Director Sanjay Hakhu said: “As we recover from the pandemic to get back into business mode, India has emerged as one of the most interesting and productive countries for the travel industry both for leisure and business travel. A combination of factors is responsible for the growth and demand of travel within India. The visitor profile is on a B2B format and will have over 1500 travel partners, corporate travel managers and wedding planners over the next two days”.
Sphere TravelMedia Director Rohit Hangal added “With the present ongoing recovery of tourism and with International Arrivals in India on a slower growth, ‘India International Travel Mart’ is the right event to provide an impetus to the Indian domestic tourism industry. The tourism stakeholders from the states of Karnataka, Himachal Pradesh, Meghalaya, Gujarat, Jammu and Kashmir, Kerala and many more destinations will be seen aggressively marketing their products”.
