Drar in 1,5 miljarder kronor – nu ansöker Big Travel om rekonstruktion

Towe Boström

Närmare 60 personer har sagt upp från det pressade resebolaget.

Breakits event & nätverk.

Många aktörer inom reseindustrin har fått se sina omsättningar krascha totalt i samband med coronakrisen – och nu slår ytterligare en luttrad resejätte larm. 

Det är bolaget Big Travel Sweden AB, som ingår i resekoncernen Big Travel, som ansöker om rekonstruktion. 

Bolaget grundades redan 1983 och beskriver sig själva som en av Sveriges största resebyråkedjor. Big Travel Sweden omsatte 1,5 miljarder kronor med en vinst på 1,8 miljoner kronor i det brutna räkenskapsåret som avslutades i april förra året.

Bakom bolaget står Big Travel Scandinavia som i sin tur ägs till fullo av investeringsbolaget Taptum AB sedan fem år tillbaka. 

Satsar på företagsresor och offentlig sektor

Big Travel Sweden har traditionellt erbjudit resor mot såväl privatkunder som företag och har 15 lokala resebyråer runt om i landet. Under förra året svängde de dock om affärsmodellen och började att fasa ut försäljningen mot privatpersoner. Tanken är att den ska upphöra helt mot hösten.

Big Travel fokuserar istället på tunga kunder från offentlig sektor, som staten samt kommuner och landsting. Utöver det har bolaget även kunder bland små och medelstora företag.

Nu konstaterar ledningen att satsningarna och omställningen kostat, men att lönsamheten varit god, fram tills i vår. När Corona kom upphörde resandet tvärt. 

”Under mars månad 2020 rasade bolagets intäkter dramatiskt och uteblev nästan helt. Reseindustrin som bransch drabbas synnerligen hårt. Detta både extrema och helt oförutsägbara intäktsbortfall har på mycket kort tid medfört en akut likviditetskris för bolaget”, skriver företrädare.

Närmare 60 har sagts upp

Det arbetar närmare 160 personer inom Big Travel Sweden. Av dem hade 56 stycken meddelats om uppsägning vid tidpunkten för ansökan, som inkom till tingsrätten under torsdagen förra veckan.

Bolagets skulder uppgår till runt 100 miljoner kronor, varav 41 miljoner kronor banklån och krediter.

Big Travel skriver att bankkrediter och regeringens stödåtgärder underlättat, men att det inte löser de finansiella problemen. De kommer inte att kunna betala sina skulder förrän intäkterna kommer tillbaka, något de ”försiktigt bedömer” komma kunna ske först i mitten av augusti. En rekonstruktion bedöms vara den enda vägen framåt.

Pierre Pettersson är rekonstruktör i ärendet. Han säger till Breakit att det rör sig om, så vitt han kan se, ett välmående bolag med en fungerande verksamhet som drabbats av en extremt situation. Det vill säga att resandet gått från fullt till nära noll på väldigt kort tid.

”Jag bedömer att förutsättningarna är goda för en rekonstruktion av bolaget”, säger Pierre Pettersson.

Big Travel har 15 lokala resebyråer i Sverige som främst hanterar privatkunderna. Bland varumärkena finns traditionella spelare som Reseshoppen och Resebyrån. Byråerna kommer att påverkas i samband med att fokuset mot affärsresande ökar. 

”Som ett led i detta kommer man tyvärr att behöva se över och lägga ned lokalkontor. Hur många och vilka är dock ännu för tidigt att säga”, säger Pierre Pettersson. 

Kan bli aktuellt med ägartillskott 

Det kommer att krävas en ackordsuppgörelse med borgenärerna för att lyckas genomföra rekonstruktionen.

”Man behöver en skuldnedskrivning som en del av rekonstruktionen, sedan exakt på vilken nivå och på vilka villkor får man återkomma till”, säger Pierre Pettersson.

Kan det bli aktuellt för moderbolaget Taptum att tillföra pengar? 

”Det är ett av alternativen som vi tittar på. De är fordringsägare också. Det finns olika sätt för ägare och fordringsägare att bidra till rekonstruktionen”, säger Pierre Pettersson.

Ägaren Taptum köpte upp Big Travel Scandinavia, med dotterbolag, under 2015. De beskriver Big Travel-koncernen som en av Sveriges och Nordens största resebyråkedjor med 18 butiker och 12 affärsresecenter i Sverige. I gruppen ingår bland annat Reseshoppen och Resevaruhuset. Big Travel Sweden har systerbolag i Danmark, Norge och Finland och den årliga omsättningen uppges landa på 200 miljoner euro, över 2 miljarder kronor. 

Breakit har sökt representater för Taptum.

Det är nu klart att BIG Travel tar över verksamheten i Resevaruhuset som nyligen gick i konkurs . BIG Travel har kommit överens med Resevaruhusets konkursförvaltare att ta över tillgångar som kundregister, varumärken, domäner med mera. Flera av Resevaruhusets medarbetare kommer också att erbjudas tjänster inom BIG Travel.

Resevaruhuset som grundades redan 1966 hade kontor i Stockholm, Göteborg och Uppsala. Den personal som kommer att övertas kommer att arbeta i BIG Travels lokaler. Resevaruhusets nuvarande kontor kommer därmed att stängas.

– Vi ser fram emot att få utvidga vår verksamhet med både kunder och medarbetare från Resevaruhuset. Detta innebär också att vi ytterligare stärker vår position på resebyråmarknaden i Sverige, kommenterar BIG Travel Scandinavias vd Jan-Anders Holmqvist.

BIG Travel Scandinavia AB är moderbolag för Taptumkoncernens resebyråverksamhet. Bolaget med dotterbolag i hela Norden omsätter för verksamhetsåret 2017/18 cirka 1,3 miljarder kr och har närmare 200 medarbetare. Resevaruhusetgruppen omsatte år 2016 ca 260 mkr och hade ett trettiotal anställda.

Uppsalabutiken påverkas inte när resejätten gör om

Magnus Jansson Klarin

chevron-right

Publicerad 2020-05-13

Resejätten Big Travel omorganiserar och lägger ned flera av sina butiker. Bland annat tvingas butikerna i Borlänge, Östersund och Hudiksvall att stänga.

Men i Uppsala blir butiken kvar – ännu så länge.

Hela resebranschen befinner sig i någon form av fritt fall med anledning av coronapandemin och de stängda nationsgränserna. Nyligen kom rapporter att resandet från Arlanda har minskat med hela 98 procent.

Ett av företagen som har det svårt just nu är resejätten Big Travel som nyligen meddelade att företaget stänger flera av sina butiker. Däribland butikerna i Borlänge, Växjö, Östersund, Kristianstad och Hudiskvall.

Butiken i Uppsala påverkas inte

Men enligt Fredrik Skarke, Vd för Big Travel, kommer inte butiken i Uppsala att påverkas av omorganisationen.

– Den påverkas inte, personalen där kommer snarare att få mer att göra nu när vi minskar antalet butiker, säger Fredrik Skarke, som berättar att omorganisationen påbörjades redan innan krisen.

– Vi såg redan under sista kvartalet förra året att resandet inom framförallt den offentliga verksamheten minskade kraftigt. Så redan i december förra året började vi se över verksamheten.

Finns det någon risk för konkurs om inte resandet kommer igång snart? – Inte som det ser ut just nu i alla fall. Vi har en plan som visar att vi ska ta oss igenom det här om inrikesresorna är igång till september. Vi har långa avtal med flera stora offentliga verksamheter, så när resandet väl kommer igång så tror jag att vi kommer vara igång ganska snabbt.

Delivering great customer experiences with modern travel technology to provide the ultimate customer overview.

The 30-second resume

BIG Travel relies on TravelOperations CRM and ERP/mid and back-office solutions to deliver experiences above and beyond the expected. During the Covid-19 pandemic, the visionary TMC prepared for the future by building an agile business based on automated processes and smart workflows to strengthen the bottom line.

About BIG Travel

BIG Travel  is one of Sweden’s largest corporate TMCs with more than 30 years in the industry.

The challenge

BIG Travel was a very classic TMC with standalone systems for finance, sales, marketing, and customer service. It’s how most TMCs are run, but BIG Travel knew they could work smarter and wanted the right tools to deliver great customer experiences and ultimately grow their business the smart way.

Facing hard times caused by the worldwide Covid-19 pandemic, BIG Travel stood at a crossroads. True to the nature of the company, they decided to face the challenge head-on and prepare for the future.

The dream was to gather all data in one system, so that marketing would have access to all relevant customer information. Only then would marketing be able to create tailored campaigns to a very specific customer segment based on insights to ex. previous travel destinations, travel patterns, supplement purchases, upgrades etc. I truly believe there is only one sensible way to prepare for the future: To ensure a loyal customer base by delivering great customer experiences. The only but being that it requires access to thorough insights. Johan Nyrén, BIG Travel

The Solution

To realize their ambitious plan, BIG Travel opted for a technology upgrade to gather all customer data in one system. They searched for a platform designed for travel and chose TravelOperations CRM and ERP/mid and back-office solutions.

We were looking for a modern alternative to our old CRM and mid-and-back-office solution… By modern, I mean a standard cloud based and scalable solution. We were not interested in a custom made “Big Travel system” but very clearly looking for a solution that would always be up to date and supported with standard components and modules. Johan Nyrén, BIG Travel

TravelOperations is powered by Microsoft Dynamics 365 and offer exactly what BIG Travel was looking for: a standard, future-proof solution that would enable BIG Travel to stay both competitive and able to adjust to outside circumstances like a pandemic.

With TravelOperations, BIG Travel moved all data to Dynamics 365 taking the first huge step towards operational efficiency and great customer experiences.

Investing in new technology to support vital business functions and processes is always about creating a better revenue base. BIG Travel is no exception. They are ready for large-volume travel again and prepared to grow with automated processes. But just as important is their ability to deliver great customer experiences throughout the organization.

What we essentially want is to create the best possible relationship with our customers. We want our customers to feel important, to have the feeling that we know them and understand what they find important while travelling. Now, with the right technology – with Microsoft and TravelOperations – that is just what we can do Johan Nyrén, BIG Travel

BIG Travel is already seeing the impact and winning important customers who buy in on the positive effects of BIG Travel’s technology focus.

There is no doubt that BIG Travel has ambitious plans. They all start with one platform in the cloud. With smart marketing, a huge focus on customer experience, and a steady gaze to the future.

We have transformed our business – not forced by the pandemic, but it definitely pushed us in the right direction. – Johan Nyrén, BIG Travel.

Corporate Travel Comeback: Airlines Say They’re Seeing Gains

Meghna Maharishi , Skift

May 16th, 2024 at 3:09 PM EDT

Once at a standstill as a result of the pandemic, road warriors are returning to business travel as corporations implement more return-to-office policies and in-person client meetings.

Meghna Maharishi

Since the pandemic, airlines have reported record results quarter after quarter. International and premium travel have been the main drivers. But in the most recent quarter, airlines got a big boost from a segment many thought was long gone: business travel. 

For Delta, corporate bookings were up 14%, with the financial services, technology and customer service industries leading the increase. 

Glen Hauenstein, Delta’s president, said that 90% of the companies it surveyed on corporate travel said they plan to increase travel in the second quarter. That could set Delta to deliver record corporate revenues during the latter half of the year. 

Returning to Pre-Pandemic Norms

Pre-pandemic, corporate travel was a trillion-dollar business . But it’s been slow to return. As people returned to offices, businesses cut back on travel budgets — meetings with clients were instead conducted over video conferencing platforms like Zoom. 

Jonathan Kletzel, PwC’s U.S. airline and travel practice leader, said business travel is not quite completely at pre-pandemic levels, but higher airfares have led to revenue gains for airlines.  

“We’re at a point now where enough of the volume has come back at a higher price that people are saying, ‘OK corporate travel is back,’” he said.

Kletzel said mostly bigger corporations with bigger travel budgets and return-to-office policies have driven the uptick in corporate travel. 

“You are seeing a lot of companies go back to work and because those companies are going back to work, now they want to see their suppliers there as well,” Kletzel said. “So there’s an opportunity to go visit clients.” 

Corporate Bookings Fuel Q1 Revenues

United Airlines also saw corporate bookings increase 14% in the first quarter. “The strength of the business traffic rebound is a nice development for an airline like United,” said Andrew Nocella, United’s chief commercial officer, during a call with analysts. 

And West Coast-based Alaska Airlines said it is seeing a surge in business travel as the tech industry rebounds from the pandemic. Corporate bookings for Alaska were up 22% in the first quarter, and business travel for the carrier has now recovered to 2019 levels. 

American is seeing slightly similar results as its competitors but hasn’t seen the same significant increases in bookings among larger corporations that have contracts with booking platforms for business travel. 

American chief commercial officer Vasu Raja said the carrier has seen more bookings from smaller- and medium-sized businesses. 

“It’s really being driven by unmanaged corporations that continue to come back to American Airlines,” he said in a call with analysts. “Managed corporates, contracts and corporations are growing a little bit less than that, but still high — in the mid- to high single digits.”

It’s not just airlines. Earlier this month, Hyatt said it was seeing strength in business travel as well. Revenue from hotel stays by transient business travelers rose 6% in its most recent quarter, and forward bookings were showing substantial gains.

Airlines Sector Stock Index Performance Year-to-Date

Big Travel övertar Resevaruhusets verksamhet

Big Travel har kommit överens med Resevaruhusets konkursförvaltare om att förvärva verksamheten i Resevaruhuset.

Big Travel AB övertar verksamheten i Resevaruhuset efter konkursen tidigare i somras. I överlåtelsen ingår tillgångar som kundregister, varumärken, domäner etc. Flera av Resevaruhusets medarbetare kommer att erbjudas tjänster inom Big Travel. Det framgår av ett pressmeddelande.

Resevaruhuset som grundades redan 1966 hade kontor i Stockholm, Göteborg och Uppsala. Den personal som kommer att övertas kommer att arbeta i BIG Travels lokaler. Resevaruhusets nuvarande kontor kommer därmed att stängas.

– Vi såg stora fördelar med ett förvärv. Resevaruhuset har i likhet med Big Travel och Resecity tre verksamhetsgrenar; privatresor, affärsresor samt grupp- & konferensresor. Företagen arbetar vidare i samma systemlösningar och har liknande företagskultur, säger Stig Sjöblom, nyutnämnd koncernchef och vd i Taptum AB, moderbolag till Big Travel och Resecity.

Big Travels vd Jan-Anders Holmqvist: – Vi ser fram emot att få utvidga vår verksamhet med både kunder och medarbetare från Resevaruhuset. Detta innebär också att vi ytterligare stärker vår position på resebyråmarknaden i Sverige, säger han.
