Uniglobe Travel | 3 UNIGLOBE Travel is a leading provider of travel services for business and leisure travellers. They distribute travel-related products and services through their websites and physical locations around the world. They are the world’s largest single-brand travel franchise organization. UNIGLOBETravel was founded byU. Gary Charlwood in 1980 in Vancouver, British Columbia. Charlwood is a veteran of many industries, having earned extensive experience with travel, real estate, tourism, and airline businesses. In 1975 he and a partner bought the master franchise rights for CENTURY 21 Real Estate Canada. He later bought out his co-founder and has built CENTURY 21 Canada into one of the largest real estate companies in the country, with more than 400 locations and more than 8,000 salespeople. “After five years of running CENTURY 21, he looked back on the history of the travel industry and saw there would be a great opportunity for a franchise travel brand. At that time, the industry wasn’t well-established,” says Vice-President of U.S. Operations and Industry Relations Andrew Henry. “He was a trailblazer that really helped get that going.”
