The Coega Development Corporation (CDC) embarked on an initiative to internalise the travelling arrangements of its employees and stakeholders. This philosophical decision was influenced by the need of implementing the cost saving initiative which is at the heart of the organisation.

A diversified Project Team comprised of internal employees was appointed to research the challenges and opportunities brought about by this innovation. The initiative was proved to be viable proposition and a fully operational office was set up to serve the organisation.

In order to give impetus and to ensure that CDC has a fully recognised, accredited and independent travelling agency a suitable name had to be given to this brain child. The initiative was then named Coega Corporate Travel (CCT) functioning under the auspices of the CDC.
