In anticipation of 27 new hotel openings worldwide in the next four years, including 21 within Asia, Hong Kong-based Rosewood Hotel Group hotel management company has strategically expanded its sales network with the opening of a regional sales office in Bangkok. Mr. David Campbell has been appointed regional director of sales and marketing – southeast Asia to head the new office.
The regional sales office will represent Rosewood Hotel Group’s 55 hotels in 18 countries worldwide under three distinct brands: ultra-luxury Rosewood Hotels & Resorts, five-star New World Hotels & Resorts and neighbourhood lifestyle pentahotels.
“Establishing a regional sales office in Bangkok is a significant milestone for Rosewood Hotel Group to support our rapid growth,” says May Pendraat Kredner, vice president – sales and marketing. “With David at the helm, and by adding Bangkok to our existing sales offices in Hong Kong, Beijing and Shanghai, we are well positioned to capitalise on the strength of our Southeast Asia feeder markets to help us reach our expansion goals.”
Mr. Campbell has more than 16 years’ Asia hospitality experience and most recently was director of sales and marketing for Rosewood Beijing where he played a key role in the successful opening of Rosewood’s Asia debut property and the introduction of the Rosewood brand to the region. Prior to joining Rosewood, Mr. Campbell held sales and marketing leadership positions in luxury properties including The Peninsula Shanghai and St. Regis Singapore.
