Uniglobe Travel (Canada) projects its gross sales will surpass $1 billion by the end of 2026. This outlook follows a period of growth that saw the company unify its eastern and western regions in 2023.

Why it matters

The company’s growth is driven by a focus on mid-range and higher-end travel rather than the lowest-priced options. By prioritizing personal service, the network has seen all its agencies report at least 10% year-over-year growth.

The company’s network includes 35 agency ownership groups operating 58 brick-and-mortar locations and supporting 900 travel advisors. Additionally, the Uniglobe Cruise Desk program has generated $4 million in sales since launching in March 2025.

The players

This is a network of independent travel agencies that provides support services and collective supplier access to its members.

White Oaks Resort & Spa

Located in Niagara, this facility serves as the venue for the company's annual conference.

The details

Uniglobe supports its agency owners by providing access to collectively negotiated supplier arrangements while allowing individual operators to maintain their own branding and operational control. The network is set to host its annual conference at White Oaks Resort & Spa in Niagara to further strengthen its business relationships.

Timeline

  1. The eastern and western regions were unified in 2023.

  2. The Uniglobe Cruise Desk program launched in March 2025.

Travel Outlook

The network's shift toward high-end travel reflects a broader industry movement away from mass-market automation. By prioritizing personal expertise, Uniglobe positions itself to capture market share from automated booking platforms.

Travellers can expect more personalised itinerary options as the network grows its advisor base and cruise offerings. Those seeking premium services may find increased availability at Uniglobe's 58 local offices across the country.

The takeaway

The success of this network demonstrates that travel consumers increasingly value professional guidance over automated, lowest-price booking engines. Travellers should leverage these advisor networks when planning complex trips to ensure a higher level of personalized service.

What happens next

The company will hold its annual conference at White Oaks Resort & Spa from October 30 to November 1, 2026, and will honour its top 20 performers with a trip in 2027.
