Limitless Travel helps disabled people by providing them with a worry-free world of exciting tours and holidays. It is founded and made up to meet the needs of people or guests with disabilities. The company offers group holidays and tours to the accessible travel market. The business generates revenue by organising and curating the sales of the tour. With the proceeds, Limitless Travel will increase the product range and include a varied range of travel services in different market sectors. The revenue will be generated by earning a commission (15-25%) and generating a margin (25-35%) from a cost-plus model. The management has prepared conservative forecasts that assume a modest growth in the business over a limited range of holiday products and a modest 5x exit in 2023 for £9.5 million.
