History
HOST Destination Management originated from amalgamating the services of Pacific Western Transportation, Rosedale Livery and HOST's own team of destination services experts. HOST was created to combine knowledge, experience and creativity to deliver unparalleled conference, meeting, event and incentive services.
The creation of HOST Destination Management has been a logical progression that enables them to provide specialized transportation and destination services to their clients through one full service destination management company. This united expertise has resulted in a destination management firm that is backed by a major national transportation company, enabling HOST to provide direct expert services, direct price benefits, and an extensive background of experience.
HOST Service Concept
The Quality of Specialized Services
The destination services department is comprised of a team that became part of HOST after years of experience delivering destination services. Their focus is on planning and managing the details of conferences, meetings, special events, tour programs and incentive programs. This team of established destination services professionals has a strong network of supplier partners to fulfill all conference and event needs. They provide creativity through their extensive knowledge of Toronto and Ontario to translate the objectives of your program into memorable one-of-a-kind experiences.
HOST's group of transportation specialists has provided the best quality conference and event transportation services in the Toronto market for the past ten years. This group has proven that they are unmatched in the planning and execution of transportation services for conventions and events in Toronto. HOST's transportation department will plan and manage every aspect of your transportation program. They run the program directly with their own drivers and their own equipment.
The Benefit of Direct Pricing
Dealing with HOST will provide you the same rate for transportation equipment and services that a regular destination management company would get before they mark it up. This direct pricing will avoid broker fees because HOST owns all the equipment. HOST's rates on all other services are competitive because they are committed to delivering value. You will enjoy better prices, but in this case lower prices do not mean lower quality. You get what you pay for - the finest quality direct service.
