The partnership aims to establish unified pricing and global distribution for all Shaza and Mysk Hotels across Halalbooking’s extensive network.

The agreement was formalised during a signing ceremony between Mr. Shaji Abu Salih, Vice President Business Development at Shaza Hotels, and Mr. Enver Cebi, Co-founder and Chief Operating Officer of Halalbooking. The signing took place during Shaza’s Annual Partner Meet held at Shaza Riyadh, an event designed to foster stronger relationships with key stakeholders. This high-profile gathering brought together travel trade partners, government officials, potential investors, and media representatives. The hotel team engaged with trade and other industry associates to discuss strategic partnerships for the future while thanking them for their support in achieving a successful financial year in 2024.

Shaji Abu Salih, Vice President Business Development at Shaza Hotels, said, “We are delighted to enter into a strategic alliance with Halalbooking, a channel partner that aligns seamlessly with the ethos of Shaza and Mysk Hotels. The success of our Annual Partner Meet 2024 provided a valuable opportunity to meet and engage with our business partners. As we transition from a regional brand to a global brand with properties in the USA, Asia, and beyond, collaborations like this are integral to our growth strategy. Halalbooking provides access to core target audience – Halal-conscious travellers – who are our direct consumers. With KSA being one of our primary markets for growth, we are committed to expanding our footprint in the region. This partnership offers mutual benefits and will elevate the visibility of both brands in niche markets globally, while further strengthening our presence in KSA and beyond.”

Looking ahead, Shaza Hotels plans to implement consistent and strategic partner engagement initiatives across major source markets and cities to sustain brand engagement and further strengthen its B2B network.

The Annual Partner Meet 2024 provided an excellent platform to thank partners for their invaluable contributions to a successful financial year and to explore new avenues for collaboration.
