Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group is planning to establish more than 130 new hotels in India by 2024, as it eyes large-scale expansion in the country.
The company says that the focus will be on mid-scale hotels under management contracts as they exhibit more potential and are in demand.
Speaking to PTI, Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group South Asia chairman K B Kachru, said: "The new openings will be primarily of Park Inn by Radisson and Country Inns & Suites by Carlson."
The hotels will most probably be located in mini-metros, religious and tourist destinations.
Commenting on Carlson Rezidor’s business model and investment plan in India, Kachru stated: "The hotels will be under the hotel management agreement. Our investment is mainly in developing human capital, technology and the sales network.
"There is a huge middle-class and above population here. With the development of new tourist sectors, the potential here is immense for the hospitality industry."
