Celebrating 25 Years of Short Breaks
As Superbreak celebrates 25 years of trade this month, let’s take a moment to reflect on the years gone by.
A message from the Brand Director:
Oh how the world has changed in 25 years. Superbreak today is fast-changing too but the constants remain great value and exceptional service levels. I am so glad we have not gone online-only and still have a UK based call centre staffed with nice people who know their product and care about our customers. I believe our people and our clients will see us through the next 25 years.
