Develop our Carrier portfolio and continue to expand our business across Italy.
Support cross-selling of expanding suite of products and services into the transport operators (White-Labels, BI tools, Mobile Booking Solutions, etc.).
Drive sales and revenue growth by securing high-impact partnerships that align with Distribusion’s strategic goals.
