Activity
Commenting on her new role, Tracy said: “As a company, Makro has so much interesting activity going on, both in store and through other channels, and I’m really looking forward to getting stuck in. Initially, I’ll be meeting with as many independent hotel customers as possible to really get to know their business requirements, and from this, will shape and help deliver the next stage of this focused strategy.”
Makro’s ‘proud to support independent hotels’ focus was launched in 2010 and offers hotel owners, from smaller guest houses to larger hotels, a wide range of popular products; from a complete one-stop shop breakfast offering to every day low prices on housekeeping essentials.
