Liz Hall and David Holland African Pride

General manager Liz Hall and sales manager David Holland have acquired African Pride and sister brand Knighton Reeve from The Curzon Corporation, which founded the business in 1999.

As a result of the management buy-out, Hall and Holland have become joint directors in The Knavesmire Travel Group, the company they used to buy African Pride.

Hall said: “African Pride has enjoyed great success since the business started and latterly, the luxury Knighton Reeve programme has added to this success.

“Curzon has been excellent and supportive owners and were keen to see continuity preserved with the sale.
