Voyages Eurafrique

What Voyages Eurafrique does

Voyages Eurafrique is a family-owned French travel agency founded in 1963 by Jean Korcia in Aix-en-Provence and currently led by Philippe Korcia (Director General) and Catherine Korcia Benattar. The company operates three branded divisions: K Business Travel by Eurafrique (corporate travel management), Imag'In Voyages by Eurafrique (leisure travel), and IKS Events by Eurafrique (MICE and corporate events), serving enterprise clients, growing startups, and individual leisure travelers across 300+ client accounts. The firm operates physical agencies in Aix-en-Provence, Marseille (Imag'In Voyages by Setiex), and Cagnes-sur-Mer (Imag'In Voyages by 7/7 Jet Travel), plus a Guadeloupe antenna opened in 2019.

The business model is commission-based across three revenue streams: corporate travel management services (transaction fees on flights, hotels, trains, car rentals for business clients), leisure travel sales (commissions on packaged vacations and cruises), and MICE/group events professional services. Distribution combines traditional account-manager-led sales with self-service digital channels. The technology stack includes an Online Booking Platform, a Fare Optimizer that scans reservations for lower fares, a Travel Decisions statistics portal with 20+ pre-established reports, a Travel Box invoice dematerialization portal, and a Mobile Messenger application with Riskline travel tracker integration. Corporate tooling integrates with Cytric (SBT and Expense), Dimo Nautilus (expense management), Chorus Pro (French public-sector e-invoicing), and Amadeus (GDS), with risk-management integrations to International SOS, Anticip, and Geos.

The company is a founding member of the Manor network, an independent French grouping of 70+ business travel agencies created in 1986 by Jean Korcia himself, providing collective supplier negotiating leverage while preserving member independence. Voyages Eurafrique holds APST, IATA, and Les Entreprises du Voyage industry certifications, is GDPR-compliant, and operates as a privately held entity with no external investors, no funding rounds, and no disclosed M&A activity in the available record.

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• Havas Voyages: One of France's largest business and leisure travel agency networks, owned by Marietton Développement. Closely comparable to Voyages Eurafrique in serving French corporate and leisure clients through a multi-brand, multi-office retail model.
• Voyage Privé: France-headquartered travel club specializing in discounted leisure packages. Comparable in that it sells packaged leisure trips (Tanzania, Brazil, Caribbean) to French consumers — the same demand segment Voyages Eurafrique's Imag'In Voyages targets.
• Selectour: Major French cooperative network of independent travel agencies. Like Voyages Eurafrique, members combine independent retail locations with collective supplier negotiating power, targeting both leisure consumers and corporate clients.

Emerging players

• TravelPerk: Tech-forward European corporate travel platform offering self-serve booking, consolidated invoicing, and sustainability reporting. Directly competitive with Voyages Eurafrique's Cytric SBT-based managed corporate offering for mid-market French accounts.
• MisterFly: France-based online travel agency focused on flight and package bookings with dynamic pricing technology. Comparable to Voyages Eurafrique's leisure arm in selling France-outbound travel, but primarily through digital channels rather than physical retail.

Broad incumbents

• BCD Travel: Major global TMC serving corporate clients with managed travel programs, analytics, and consulting. Overlaps with Voyages Eurafrique's K Business Travel offering but at enterprise/global scale versus the regional French mid-market.
• CWT (Carlson Wagonlit Travel): Global corporate travel management company providing business travel, meetings & events, and consulting. Comparable in serving mid-to-large French corporates but with broader geographic reach and deeper digital capabilities.
• American Express Global Business Travel: Global leader in corporate travel management. Competes with Voyages Eurafrique in the same TMC category but at vastly greater scale, with multinational clients, proprietary technology, and global 24/7 service coverage.
• Egencia (Expedia Group): Corporate travel arm of Expedia Group, combining OTA inventory with corporate travel management tools. Competes for the same French SME and mid-cap corporate accounts that Voyages Eurafrique targets, leveraging Expedia's consumer-scale content.

Regional players

• FTI Voyages: Tour operator focused on leisure packages primarily for French-speaking travelers, with strong presence in Mediterranean and North African destinations. Overlaps with Voyages Eurafrique's Imag'In Voyages leisure brand in the French package-holiday market.
