According to the statement, the pre-requirements for EaseMyTrip franchise would include “knowledge about travel vertical, sales, customer services, good network of customer base and local contacts”.
Rikant Pittie, co-founder of EaseMyTrip, said, “EaseMyTrip Franchise model is born with a simple idea of catering to the different set of customers who likes to be assisted face-to-face and are not internet savvy. With
