Marketing

The MTA's Marketing Directorate is led by the Chief Marketing Officer, and supported by a Budgetary Control & Planning team. The marketing outfit consists of various units that deal with different geographical areas which are of interest to the Maltese Islands from a tourism perspective.

The units have been assigned the following responsibilities:

  • Unit 1: UK and Ireland
  • Unit 2: Germany, Austria and Switzerland
  • Unit 3: France, Belgium, Luxembourg & Israel
  • Unit 4: Italy, Spain, Portugal and South America
  • Unit 5: Nordic Region, Netherlands and South Africa
  • Unit 6: China, Hong Kong, Singapore & Taiwan
  • Unit 7: Eastern Europe, Russia, Former Soviet States, Balkans and Baltic States
  • Unit 8: Turkey, Greece, Australia, Cruise, USA & Canada
  • Unit 9: Russia (and all CIS countries), Mena, Cyprus, Africa, India, Japan & Korea
  • Unit 10: Pan-European and Special Projects

Each unit is composed of a manager or senior manager, and an executive. All units report back to the Chief Marketing Officer, who is ultimately in charge of International Marketing.

Each of these units liaise on an ongoing basis with the corresponding MTA overseas office or representative in the territory for which they are responsible. By doing so, the units at Head Office can better understand the market, and keep up to date with trends and the specific needs of the potential visitors. They also assist in the development of marketing campaigns, participate in overseas travel fairs and events, create press trip programs that are better suited for the target market and support activities of the overseas network in an effective manner.

By structuring the marketing department into various geographical markets, each team develops a stronger relationship with the overseas office, as well as tour operators, journalists, media representatives and other entities from their respective territories.
