Three new partnerships deliver added benefits to ESSA members
The Event Supplier and Services Association (ESSA) has announced partnerships with Accor Hotels, Freightlink and Eezibuy, through which members will be able to benefit from time and cost savings.
The Accor Hotel Group will be offering members between 5% and 10% discounts on hotel stays in more than 2000 hotels across 90 countries. Freightlink will be providing discounts on 160 European ferry routes, enabling members to cut logistics costs when moving freight over the continent as well as access to their integrated time saving online booking system. Finally, all members will now have access to the Eezibuy procurement platform, offering ESSA members exclusive deals, preferential rates and service, from a range of leading suppliers of daily business overheads.
“One strand of our ongoing mission as a trade body is to negotiate, and partner with, organisations that can save our members time, money and help them grow their businesses, another way of delivering a return on a members investment,” commented ESSA deputy director Andrew Harrison.
"Through our annual member research, ESSA is able to identify the costs members regularly face. Using the results we are able to make additions to our growing ‘member benefits’ and Discount Card schemes, delivering cheaper hotel stays, cheaper transportation of goods and cheaper overhead costs, all with increased service levels," concluded Harrison.
