INVEST IN A HIGH-DEMAND INDUSTRY WITH A $37+ BILLION MARKET SHARE.

Travel and tourism contribute almost $6 trillion to the global economy. In the U.S. alone, the travel agency industry stood at $37.7 billion in 2022. Since the Covid-19 pandemic, 50% of travelers indicate they’re more likely to use a travel advisor. This is especially true of the 50+ age group, 67% of whom made travel plans in 2022. With a proven track record serving this lucrative but overlooked market segment, a World Travel for Singles franchise offers a distinct value proposition:

Trusted Brand

Locational Flexibility
Because of the operational simplicity of the World Travel for Singles model, franchisees will not be required to operate from a brick-and-mortar storefront. This allows for locational flexibility as well as relatively low overhead.

A UNIQUE TRAVEL AGENCY BUILT TO BETTER SERVE SINGLES.

After numerous solo trips across the globe, founder Libby Shields identified the need for a travel network geared towards singles aged 50 and up. Traditionally, solo travelers have been discriminated against by the travel industry. Because one less passenger in a room onboard ship means fewer purchased drinks, souvenirs, excursions, etcetera, single travelers face double fares as cruise lines seek to make up “lost” revenue. To combat this discrimination, World Travel for Singles provides a roommate matching service based on sex, age, smoking preferences and other factors. Additionally, we work with other providers who don’t engage in punitive pricing practices.

World Travel for Singles f ills an underserved travel advisor services market space. Additionally, the business model is built on a high level of customer service that sets the brand apart from its competitors. With over twenty-nine years of industry experience and a proven history of success, Ms. Shields brings extensive knowledge and confidence to the franchise program.
