Melbourne-headquartered global host agency 1000 Mile Travel Group (1000MTG) has officially launched its corporate travel advisor model in North America, bringing its formula for advisor autonomy and business growth to one of the world’s most dynamic corporate travel markets.
Coming on the back of successful expansions in Australia and the United Kingdom, the introduction of scalable host agency solutions to the US represents a major milestone for the company.
“Corporate travel is evolving fast,” said Veltman. “Clients expect more. Advisors want smarter tools, stronger supplier access, and the freedom to grow their business their way. That’s exactly what we offer—and why our model has thrived in Australia and the UK.” 1000MTG CEO Nicola Veltman said.
“The North American market is ready for change. Independent advisors here have been underserved for too long. They’re stuck between choosing massive Travel Management Companies (TMCs) that don’t offer flexibility, or host agencies that don’t truly understand corporate travel. We’re here to change that equation.”
The company’s flexible, future-focused model has been designed to help experienced corporate travel professionals transition into business ownership, with full support at every step.

“Every advisor who joins us brings a unique vision for what success looks like – whether that’s managing a high-performing corporate portfolio remotely with the best tech and content in market or building a team around them while stepping back from day-to-day bookings,” Veltman said. “There’s no glass ceiling here. We’ve supported all the above and more in other regions.”
Backed by the strength of Corporate Travel Management, the world’s fourth-largest TMC, 1000MTG’s platform provides access to enterprise-grade tools, exclusive supplier agreements, and hands-on business development resources.
“We’ve built a model that enables advisors not just to survive, but to truly scale,” Senior Vice President and General Manager North America Christy Shafer said.
“Our proprietary technology drives efficiency, our global supplier relationships unlock exceptional value, and our international advisor network creates powerful opportunities for collaboration and momentum. Most importantly, we ensure our advisors are never on their own.”
1000MTG highlighted key benefits of its offering for US agents as: proprietary corporate travel technology to automate workflows and enhance service; exclusive global supplier agreements offering premium inventory and high-yield commissions; a collaborative global advisor network spanning North America, Australia, and the UK; and strategic business development support focused on growth rather than admin.
“We don’t just hand over a login and wish you luck,” Shafer added. “We’re in it for the long haul—offering real support, genuine relationships, and the tools to drive real business results.”
