Travel And Tour World had the pleasure of speaking with the accomplished Emil Edwards, a savvy entrepreneur with a master’s degree in marketing, who took on the role of UK sales manager for the Grenada Tourism Authority (GTA) in June of the previous year. Over the last eight months, Edwards has been collaborating extensively with Petra Roach, the chief executive, in preparation for his move to the UK.
Travel And Tour World: Can you tell us a bit about Grenada?
Emil: Sure, Grenada is a beautiful place. It boasts stunning beaches and a rich culinary heritage, making it a must-visit destination for travelers. Tour operators and travel agents can enhance their offerings by showcasing Grenada’s scenic coastlines and diverse food culture, attracting those seeking both relaxation and gastronomic adventures.
Travel And Tour World: Do you think that fewer people are interested in the Caribbean?
Emil: Not really, you see, people had escaped from it due to the COVID-stricken situation. After COVID, people are now realizing the value of the same, and are taking interest in the said destination. In 2024, things will be on the rise and ticking.
Travel And Tour World: How would you pitch the Caribbean as a destination, if you had to in any way?
Emil: Well, see, the Caribbean is actually a safe place, offering pristine beaches where a little sand between your toes is part of the charm. Additionally, the region is committed to sustainable tourism practices, ensuring a visit here not only promises relaxation and beauty but also supports environmentally responsible travel. This combination makes the Caribbean an ideal spot for those looking to enjoy natural wonders while contributing positively to the preservation of these paradisiacal islands.
