In February of this year (2023), an initial inquiry from a contractor and six of his colleagues evolved into a transformative collaboration with a prominent business travel company, propelling Rooost into a strategic partnership with a prominent French conglomerate with revenues surpassing three billion Euros per annum. This case study explores how Rooost, following swift due diligence and approval, seamlessly integrated into the conglomerate's network, establishing itself as an approved supplier and forging a partnership with their UK-based business travel provider.

The Catalyst: Contractor Enquiry Leads to Strategic Partnership

The journey commenced with a contractor's enquiry seeking accommodation for a group. Once Rooost received approval, a new chapter unfolded as becoming an approved supplier to the French conglomerate became a prerequisite. Demonstrating agility and efficiency, Rooost navigated the due diligence process with the conglomerate's headquarters in Paris. This swift process solidified Rooost's position as an approved supplier, unlocking the potential for a broader partnership.

Seamless Integration and Expanded Scope

With the green light, Rooost seamlessly integrated into the conglomerate's supply chain, collaborating with their approved business travel provider in the UK. This strategic alliance expanded Rooost's scope, transcending the initial group enquiry to encompass the entire client base across the UK and Europe. The partnership has proven to be mutually beneficial, creating efficiencies, reducing costs, and enhancing revenues for both parties involved.

Mutual Growth and Contribution

The partnership with the business travel partner extended beyond accommodation services. Rooost found a collaborative ally in shaping their innovative digital platform, a dynamic space where clients, contractors, accommodation providers, and Rooost converge. This platform, influenced significantly by the business travel partner, serves as a hub for seamless collaboration, ensuring that employees and contractors enjoy an optimal experience when working away from home. The result is not just increased convenience but also heightened productivity.

Efficiencies, Cost Reduction, and Revenue Growth

The strategic partnership with the business travel partner has yielded tangible benefits. Efficiencies in the accommodation booking process, streamlined by Rooost, have translated into cost reductions for the business travel partner and their clients. Simultaneously, the expanded client base has contributed to increased revenues for Rooost's and their business travel partner. This symbiotic relationship underscores the power of collaboration in the dynamic landscape of business accommodation.

Digital Innovation: A Shared Vision

The business travel partner's significant contribution to Rooost's digital platform underscores a shared vision for innovation. This collaborative space empowers stakeholders to actively participate in refining the accommodation experience, aligning with the philosophy of Rooost to provide not just a service but an environment that fosters productivity and satisfaction for employees and contractors.
