Established in 1997, IAGTO's membership comprises 2374 accredited golf tour operators, golf resorts, hotels, golf courses, receptive operators, airlines, tourist boards, approved media and business partners in 88 countries including, at its core, 668 specialist golf tour operators in 63 countries. It is estimated that IAGTO’s operators control over 87% of golf holiday packages sold worldwide and turnover more than €2.1 billion per year.
As stated by IAGTO’s founder and chief executive, Peter Walton, "IAGTO strives to provide information and create opportunities that help its members develop their business faster, with less effort and less cost. In addition to organising fam trips, press trips, workshops, destination conventions and events, our staff around the world are constantly developing new services for our members to take advantage of and we pride ourselves on being at the heart of the golf tourism industry”.
Whilst its primary goal has always been to develop services and activities to directly benefit its growing membership, IAGTO now has a much broader remit to maintain and raise standards throughout the industry and to help destinations position themselves not only to attract more business but to deliver the best possible experience to the visiting golf traveller.
In both North America and Asia, IAGTO also runs an annual Convention, bringing buyers and suppliers together in equal numbers to meet and talk business on a regional level creating new opportunities, . In addition to regular Destination Conventions, IAGTO takes over 500 operators and media on fam and press trips to golf destinations across the globe every year.
