ARGENTINA IN COLOMBIA: OUTSTANDING BUSINESS MEETING IN MEDELLÍN

A new edition of the successful Buy Argentina, an event that brings together tourism companies to generate sales for our country, will take place on the 15th of September at 4:30 PM at San Fernando Plaza Hotel.

Visit Argentina, through the National Institute for Tourism Promotion (INPROTUR), will be carrying out again the successful Buy Argentina event, this time in Medellín, Colombia. With the aim of increasing sales to our country, this series of business meetings enables establishing networks and business rounds among Argentinian operators and travel agents, and the international tourism trade.

The renowned event, aimed at local tourism professionals and the specialised press, will take place at the San Fernando Plaza Hotel in the city of Medellín from 4:30 PM to 9 PM.

Undoubtedly, the attraction of this important event will be the historic flight from Medellín to Buenos Aires by Viva Air, which began this year. This milestone, which is happening for the first time in the air connectivity history between both cities, has boosted the arrival of Colombian tourists to Argentina.

Executive Secretary of INPROTUR Ricardo Sosa said, “This event will be special because it’s taking place in the context of the Medellín-Buenos Aires flight, which resulted from great management work. Colombia is a very important market, and directly connecting the strong city of Medellín, with high potential, to Buenos Aires will give us great benefits.”

It should be noted that Colombia is in 9th place in the arrival ranking, with around 40,000 travellers in 2022, and 66% recovery in July compared to the same month in 2019, before the pandemic.
