VisitArran Partnership
The ASSC has formed an affiliate membership scheme with VisitArran.
The aim of VisitArran is to collectively market the Isle of Arran and to bring island businesses together, to provide a great experience for island visitors. They want tourism on Arran to excel, bringing visitors who will love Arran and return time after time. This approach will improve income at a higher rate and move Arran towards becoming an all year round world class destination. Becoming a partner business (PB) will help Arran tourism develop and grow in a sustainable way and will bring lasting benefits to your business.
VisitArran was formally launched in May 2007. The organisation developed as a Destination Management Organisation (DMO) and is now recognised as a leading DMO), both nationally and internationally. VisitArran is run by a voluntary Board of Directors representing different sectors of Arran business. The Board is supported in the day-to-day management of VisitArran by an Executive Director, and other supporting staff who work for the benefit of all partner businesses on Arran.
