Bernard Tours Ltd., a long-standing partner in the Sri Lankan travel industry, unveiled its new corporate logo, with the crisp new look reflecting both the evolution of the company as well as its vision for the future.
The company has been in the travel trade for three generations. Joseph Mendis, founder of the company commenced operations in 1947 with just two limousines and strong core values of personalised service and genuine hospitality. His grandson, Anjalo Mendis has since steered Bernard Tours into an internationally well-respected destination management company.
Today, the company promotes travel and leisure in Sri Lanka to more than 28 countries, and focuses on non-traditional markets which comprise of niche markets and high-end clients. Bernard Tours is a pioneer in Benelux Markets.
“I honestly believe the secret to our success is our personal touch when dealing with guests. We do our outmost to make sure they receive the value for their money, and I’m always willing to spend extra and go that extra mile to delight a guest,” said Anjalo Mendis, Managing Director of Bernard Tours.
“I am privileged to have a team of young and energetic professionals who share the same passion and drive towards customer wellbeing as their first priority. They are all family to me. For them, the sky is the limit.”
Bernard Tours’ new logo has a striking and crisp feel. It is a minimalist-type sketch of an orange rising sun, out of a soft blue wave that can be interpreted as a cloud, wave or mountain range, all of which are essentially a part of Sri Lankan landscape. The rising sun signifies the company’s intention to explore new horizons.
Today, Bernard Tours has added key growth markets such as event management, wedding planning, high end incentives, celebrity tours, film location sourcing, and hotel management to its portfolio.
Bernard Tours has its offices at 86-2/1, Chatham Street, Colombo 1. Email: [email protected] and website is www.bernardtours.com.
