MINOAN Group subsidiary GolfKings has sealed a partnership agreement with a major industry supplier.

The deal with retail services group TGI Golf gives Glasgow based GolfKings the opportunity to provide travel services to more than 400 golf professionals. It also opens up channels to sell golfing trips abroad to thousands of club members in the UK and Ireland.

GolfKings' sales director, Neil MacRae, said: "To now have TGI's endorsement is a real feather in our cap."

TGI Golf supplies brands such as adidas, Callaway, PING, Mizuno, Nike, Titleist, Lyle & Scott and FootJoy.

Eddie Reid, managing director of the Livingston based business, said: "We are very demanding in terms of the levels of service we require. We work with some of the highest profile clubs and professionals and that brings with it a level of expectation.

"But we are not a travel company and it is important we have a partner that gets this right for us. GolfKings organised our recent golf event in Belek, Turkey, and we were very impressed with their attention to detail, critical to the relationship with our professionals and their members."

GolfKings is part of John Semple Travel, which is owned by AIM-listed Minoan Group.
