Based mostly on continued positive efficiency, specially in regional locations in Australia, we are targeting franchise opportunities to broaden our Oaks Motels, Resorts and Suites and Avani Accommodations and Resort models across the location.
We foresee expanding Oaks’ upscale serviced apartment product as properly as Avani’s life style supplying with business enterprise homeowners in new and current destinations throughout the country. We desire to get the job done together with franchise associates to fuel their effectiveness as a result of our solid sales, advertising, distribution, and procurement capabilities.
