TOKYO, Jan 12, 2017 - (ACN Newswire) - JCB International Co., Ltd.
(JCBI), the international operations subsidiary of JCB Co., Ltd.,
today announced that it became the main sponsor of the Visit
Greenwich Destination Leaflet in the United Kingdom.
Greenwich is the historic area in London with visitor attractions,
accommodation providers, transport operators, meetings and event
venues, the hospitality and retail sectors and the travel trade and
media. Visit Greenwich is a public/private partnership, led by a
board of tourism professionals, representing different sectors of
the industry, with an independent chair. It promotes Greenwich and
the surrounding area as a visitor destination and place to stay.
Visit Greenwich works with partners including Royal Borough of
Greenwich, Royal Museums Greenwich, Greenwich Foundation for the
Old Royal Naval College, Greenwich Hospital (Greenwich Market),
London Cruise Ports, University of Greenwich, Docklands Light
Railway, City Cruises, Cutty Sark, The Fan Museum, Emirates Air
Line as well as hotels in and around the Greenwich peninsula.
Not only has JCB built a JCB card acceptance network in the UK over
the past 30 years, but also operates the JCB Plaza customer service
desk in the UK within Liberty's of London which provides JCB
cardmembers with local travel and sightseeing information, and
actively recommends the best shops, restaurants, spots of interest
and cultural facilities. The sponsorship will increase JCB brand
presence in the market, and also develop JCB card acceptance in the
Greenwich area. Acceptance of JCB card at Visit Greenwich's partner
merchants and the associated historic world renowned sites such as
the Cutty Sark, makes it more convenient to enjoy some of London's
cultural heritage for JCB cardmembers from Japan, Asia including
China, Korea, Taiwan, and other countries across the world.
The Visit Greenwich Destination leaflet includes a detailed outline
of all attractions and historic sites within the Greenwich area.
This is available to all visitors to the UK through any one of 8
tourist information centres within London, including Heathrow and
Gatwick Airports, as well as key train stations such as Paddington
and Kings Cross St Pancras.
