Why Chinese outbound tourism?

China is the biggest tourism source market in the world. 137 million Chinese crossed the border in 2016. Chinese outbound travellers move from sightseeing to experience, from brands to lifestyle. They can be attracted to new products, new places, new activities, new times of the year, bringing not only more, but a different kind of business – if they feel welcome and offered products according to their specific needs and expectations.

How can COTRI help?

COTRI offers solutions for tourism companies and organisations, and for destinations and retailers. We provide strategies and support for sustainable and successful engagement with relevant segments of the Chinese outbound market, and customised research and consulting, quantitative data and qualitative insights, training and certification, based on decades of experience and a dedicated global network.
