Sprice.com, Europe’s leading real-time travel search engine, has appointed LEWIS PR as its regional agency of record in Asia Pacific.

Developed by Sprice Pte. Ltd., Sprice.com was first launched in the European market in 2006 and has since become the most popular travel search engine with two million unique visitors per month. The launch of its newly revamped Singapore website marks the company’s expansion into Asia Pacific.

Sumrita Chander, General Manager at LEWIS Singapore, will lead the programme and report to Vikas Gulati, Vice President of Asia Pacific at Sprice Pte. Ltd.

“LEWIS’ track record of helping companies launch in new markets speaks for itself. The agency has a combination of strong experience in the travel and technology industry. LEWIS’ fresh approach to public relations is what Sprice.com needs to gain a foothold in the Asia Pacific market. Our industry-first travel search products, such as our Holiday Package application, have revolutionised the online travel market elsewhere and we plan to build on this success in Asia Pacific.”

“We look forward to driving awareness of Sprice.com. among media entities, industry partners and consumers,” said Erin Atan, senior vice president at LEWIS. “Sprice.com is a market innovator who is already leading the travel meta search engine industry in Europe.”
