Over many years they built up a good reputation based on their competitive prices and knowledgeable sales staff.

Once they had placed their orders they knew they could rely on Kitchenworld to deliver and even install their new kitchen units and appliances, if that was needed.

    The supply chain for a standard "brick and mortar" travel agency is quite simple. The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth Edition (2006) defines a travel agency as "a business that attends to the details of transportation, itinerary, and accommodations for travelers." The travel agency business goes as far back as the mid-19th Century. Abreu Tours (2006), which was "established in the city of the Porto in the year of 1840" and is still in business today, claims to be "the world 's oldest travel agency." According to Encyclopedia Americana (2006), "Cook, Thomas (1808-1892)," was an "English travel agent who originated the idea of a travel agency," although his type of business may be more aptly considered a tour operator than a travel agency. Encyclopedia Americana further states that Thomas Cook 's "son, John Mason Cook (1834–1899), specialized in promotion of the firm 's American interests and did much to establish Thomas Cook & Son as a worldwide agency."…

    The British company Cox & Kings is sometimes said to be the oldest travel agency in the world, but this rests upon the services that the original bank, established in 1758, supplied to its wealthy clients. The modern travel agency first appeared in the second half of the 19th century. Thomas Cook, in addition to developing the package tour, established a chain of agencies in the last quarter of the 19th century, in association with the Midland Railway. They not only sold their own tours to the public, but in addition, represented other tour companies. Other British pioneer travel agencies were Dean & Dawson, the Polytechnic Touring Association and the Co-operative Wholesale Society. The oldest travel agency in North America is…
