Tourism is a key development division of the Sava Group. Sava, d.d. has been investing into tourist activity since 1999. After the diversification of the Sava Group, it consolidated Tourism division. By merging five tourist companies into the unified company Sava Turizem d.d., it optimized their business operation and ensured conditions for the faster development of individual destinations, and brought positive synergy effects at the business efficiency level.
With the increase in the shareholding in Hoteli Bernardin d.d., the scope of the Tourism segment significantly increased and expanded in 2019. As at 1 April 2020, the merger of Hoteli Bernardin, d.d. with Sava Turizem, d.d. was entered in the court register and as of the cut-off date of 30 June 2019, the companies have been operating as a single entity.
Today, Sava Turizem, d.d. is the largest tourism group in Slovenia, which generated 10% of all overnight stays in Slovenia in 2019.
