Wyndham = Fairfield, WorldMark, Pahio, Equivest, & RCIM?
Should our forums be combined or kept separate for FF and WM seeing that they are under the Wyndham Worldwide corporate umbrella now?
Do the systems overlap beyond management? Just asking. I do not know enough about them.
Wyndham talks about Trendwest and not WM on their website.
Pahio is now also part of this group as well as Equivest.
RCI Management is now under the Wyndham umbrella as well and when I call they are Wyndham employees.
Wyndham Worldwide: Company Profile
As one of the world’s largest hospitality companies, Wyndham Worldwide offers individual consumers and business-to-business customers a broad suite of hospitality products and services across various accommodation alternatives and price ranges through our premier portfolio of world-renowned brands. With more than 20 brands, which include Wyndham Hotels and Resorts, Ramada, Days Inn, Super 8, TripRewards, RCI, Landal GreenParks, English Country Cottages, Novasol, Fairfield and Trendwest, we have built a significant presence in most major hospitality markets in the United States and throughout the rest of the world.
We operate primarily in the lodging, vacation exchange and rental, and vacation ownership segments of the hospitality industry:
Through our lodging business, we franchise hotels in the upscale, middle and economy segments of the lodging industry and provide property management services to owners of upscale branded hotels;
Through our vacation exchange and rental business, we provide vacation exchange products and services to owners of intervals of vacation ownership interests, and we market vacation rental properties primarily on behalf of independent owners; and
Through our vacation ownership business, we market and sell vacation ownership interests to individual consumers, provide consumer financing in connection with the sale of vacation ownership interests and provide property management services at resorts.
Each of our lodging, vacation exchange and rental and vacation ownership businesses has a long operating history. Our lodging business began operations in 1990 with the acquisition of the Howard Johnson and Ramada brands, each of which opened its first hotel in 1954. RCI, the best known brand in our vacation exchange and rental business, was established more than 30 years ago, and our vacation ownership brands, Fairfield and Trendwest, began vacation ownership operations in 1980 and 1989, respectively.
We provide directly to individual consumers our high quality products and services, including the various accommodations we market, such as hotels, vacation resorts, villas and cottages, and products we offer, such as vacation ownership interests. We also provide valuable products and services to our business-to-business customers, such as franchisees, affiliated resort developers and prospective developers. These products and services include marketing and central reservation systems, back office services and loyalty programs.
Wyndham Worldwide strives to provide value-added products and services that are intended both to enhance the travel experience of the individual consumer and to drive revenue to our business-to-business customers. The depth and breadth of our businesses across different segments of the hospitality industry provide us with the opportunity to expand our relationships with our existing individual consumers and business-to-business customers in one or more segments of our business by offering them additional or alternative products and services from our other segments. Through our three business segments, Wyndham Worldwide is well positioned to compete in the major hospitality segments of this large and growing industry.
