Secondly, 47 per cent said it&#8217;s often easier to compare prices, and ultimately, find the best deal,\u201d Statista notes.<\/p>\n<p>Triply management said the evolution goes beyond a name change, as the platform aims to become the \u201cbackbone of travel in Africa,&#8221; not just through bookings, but by harnessing technology to empower the continent&#8217;s travel sector.<\/p>\n<p>This includes fostering the growth of travel tech startups and establishing Africa&#8217;s first travel tech unicorn.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTriply is dedicated to supporting the millions of travel business owners who drive Africa&#8217;s tourism industry. This rebrand reflects a renewed focus on empowering travel businesses with the tools and resources they need to thrive in the digital age,\u201d Founder and CEO Peter Wachira said.<\/p>\n<p>He said Triply will leverage its cumulative experience and the strength of its team to empower travel businesses and shape the future of travel in Africa.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is more than just a company; it&#8217;s a mission to unlock the potential of our continent&#8217;s travel sector and create a lasting impact,&#8221; Wachira said.<\/p>\n<p>Bridging the information gap for travellers, Triply, he added, recognises the importance of accessible information for modern tourists.<\/p>\n<p>Through partnerships with local businesses and integrations with travel tech solutions, Triply offers offline maps, curated itineraries and multilingual content.<\/p>\n<p>This empowers travellers to navigate unfamiliar destinations with ease, regardless of language barriers or internet connectivity.<\/p>\n<p>It is counting on partnerships with local businesses and organisations, to continue providing them with the tools and resources they need to compete in the ever-evolving travel landscape.<\/p>\n<p>This includes integrating technology into their operations, such as online booking systems, digital marketing tools, and data analytics platforms.<\/p>\n<p>With its dedication to innovation and a deep understanding of the African market, Triply is well-positioned to revolutionise the travel experience for both businesses and travellers across the continent, management affirmed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy embracing tech-enabled tourism, Triply aims to unlock the full potential of Africa&#8217;s travel industry and establish it as a global leader in the digital travel age,\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/kenya\">Kenya<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Kenya.
