This background gives him a rare view from the tour operator side and a clear understanding of how destination partners can best support agents and their clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now based at EXO\u2019s head office in Bangkok, Morley will work closely with EXO\u2019s leaders, country teams and contracting specialists to refine how the company buys and collaborates with suppliers. The aim is to build even stronger, longer-term partnerships that support sustainable growth, greater consistency across markets and a more competitive, compelling product range for EXO\u2019s agent partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cChris brings a tremendous depth of commercial insight and expertise,\u201d said EXO Travel Chief Commercial Officer Nick Ghosh. \u201cWith many years spent leading product and procurement across Asia and other long-haul regions, he has a clear understanding of what robust contracting and successful supplier relationships look like for all stakeholders. His appointment will help us buy more effectively and unlock greater value across our partnerships by creating genuine win-win outcomes for our suppliers, our agent partners, and EXO. Ultimately, those shared gains will flow directly to our partners who trust us and the clients they serve.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>(Source: Exo Travel)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BANGKOK, 5 December 2025: EXO Travel has appointed Chris Morley as Director of Commercial, a key role that will further reinforce the company\u2019s commercial leadership under Chief Commercial Officer, Nick Ghosh.\u00a0 In this position, Morley will oversee EXO\u2019s commercial strategy across its network of destinations, with a focus on deepening supplier relationships, enhancing contracting performance [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":45,"featured_media":260073,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8,3991],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-260072","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-thailand","8":"category-travel-companies"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 -
