-- Hospitality and travel industry veteran Tony
Marshall now heads broader go-to-market strategy to serve demand
for modern property management systems, point-of-sale systems and
F&B inventory and procurement systems --
Agilysys, a leading global provider of hospitality software
solutions and services, today announces the appointment of Tony
Marshall to the position of Vice President and Managing Director
for Asia Pacific. With continued strong demand for its Property
Management Systems (PMS), Point-of-Sale (POS) and Inventory and
Procurement (I&P) solutions in APAC and other global regions,
Agilysys named Marshall to spearhead its regional growth strategy
and go-to-market execution across the region.
With more than two decades in the industry, Marshall brings
extensive experience driving sales and operations for hospitality
technology companies in Asia Pacific and the Middle East. Since
joining Agilysys in 2022 as Regional Director, Marshall has been
instrumental in expanding the company's presence in key APAC
markets, including Australia, New Zealand, South Korea and
Singapore.
“Tony’s proven track record of building strong customer-focused
teams equips us to identify and serve hotels and resorts looking to
modernize their technology systems to better meet the demands of
discerning guests and top-performing employees,” said Agilysys
President and CEO Ramesh Srinivasan.
Based in Singapore, Marshall will prioritize building awareness
of Agilysys and its state-of-the-art hospitality software and
solutions across the Asia Pacific region. Toward that end, Marshall
has begun forming an in-region team of hospitality experts,
including a Director of Sales for Australia and New Zealand and a
Regional Director of Sales for South-East Asia. Marshall will play
a key role in extending the company’s leadership in delivering
innovative hospitality software that can be deployed as either
best-of-breed solutions or as a full ecosystem in either
Software-as-a-Service or on-premise deployments for properties in
APAC looking to drive growth in the experience economy.
"I am excited to take on this challenge as we continue to expand
across the Asia Pacific," said Marshall. "There is tremendous
greenfield opportunity in APAC as the hospitality industry in the
region continues to accelerate adoption of state-of-the-art
technology. With our increased focus in this region, I am confident
we can help hoteliers delight guests and empower front line staff
to deliver an exceptional Return-on-Experience and forge lasting
guest loyalty.”
With a 13 percent year-over-year growth in occupancy levels of
hotels across APAC reported in 2023, and a further rise in 2024
predicted, particularly in the luxury segments, hoteliers need to
ensure they are well-positioned to attract and retain staff and win
guests and return visits. With changing guest preferences and
increased competition, hotels and resorts are turning to technology
partners like Agilysys to exceed rising expectations and leverage
end-to-end hospitality solutions that help increase revenue per
guest across their properties.
With the broadest hospitality software portfolio and 100% focus
on hospitality, Agilysys optimises the entire guest journey - from
reservation to checkout - to drive revenue, loyalty, and
efficiency.
