Intersight’s journey began humbly in 1996, founded by visionary entrepreneur Abraham George (Johny) with a single office in Kochi, a small team of three, and a modest turnover of 1.2 million Indian rupees. Today, Intersight has evolved into a major force in the travel industry, with 18 offices across India, 3 international offices, a workforce of 300, and an impressive turnover of 1.7 billion Indian rupees.
Despite facing significant challenges, including the devastating Kerala floods of 2018 and the unprecedented impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020-21, Intersight has emerged resilient, weathering these storms and charting a path of steady growth.
As the company looks ahead to its 30th anniversary in 2027, its vision is nothing short of ambitious. Intersight plans to expand its network of associate travel agents from 5,000 to 10,000, while aiming to double its revenue to 3 billion Indian rupees. By then, the company envisions offering an even more comprehensive range of travel products across India, reaching new heights in the industry.
Key to this growth strategy is unlocking the tourism potential of tier 3 and 4 cities, empowering local entrepreneurs, and expanding Intersight’s presence in these underexplored regions. A state-of-the-art B2B portal will further fuel this expansion, enabling seamless collaboration and fostering the company’s mission of delivering world-class travel experiences.
With a clear roadmap in place, Intersight is poised to continue its remarkable journey of success and innovation.
