China International Travel Service Head Office Co., Ltd. (CITS Head Office), formerly known as China International Travel Service Head Office, was established in Beijing in 1954 with the personal approval of Premier Zhou Enlai and the approval of the Government Administration Council. It was the first travel agency in New China to receive overseas tourists and one of the first travel agencies authorized by the state to operate outbound tourism, the first corporate member of the World Tourism Organization in China, and the top 5A-level travel agency in Beijing. CITS Head Office has successively joined international organizations such as PATA (Pacific Asia Travel Association), IATA (International Air Transport Association), ASTA (American Society of Travel Agents), WTTC (World Travel and Tourism Council), and WTCF (World Tourism Cities Federation), and is a vice president unit of the China Association of Travel Services. In the 2016 China's 500 Most Valuable Brands released by the World Brand Lab, the "CITS" brand reached a new high with a brand value of 44.985 billion RMB, ranking first among tourism service brands for thirteen consecutive years, continuing to lead China's tourism service industry. The "CITS" brand has become a first-class brand in China, a leading brand in Asia, and a world-renowned trademark. In 2004, CITS Head Office and China Duty Free Group merged and reorganized into China National Travel Service Group Co., Ltd. In 2009, it was listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange as an important subsidiary of China Tourism Group Co., Ltd. On August 3, 2016, China Tourism Group Corporation was officially established. As its main travel agency business segment, CITS Head Office currently owns 39 wholly-owned and holding enterprises, 4 equity-participating enterprises, nearly 1,000 tourism outlets, and over 100 member travel agencies of the CITS Council across the country; it has established 7 wholly-owned or holding overseas travel agencies and 19 overseas visa centers in 13 countries and regions worldwide, and has established long-term and stable cooperative relationships with over 1,400 travel operators in more than 100 countries, forming a modern business network rooted in China with a global vision. In the future, CITS Head Office will firmly seize the major opportunities of the current rapid development of the tourism industry, aim for long-term goals, and strive for excellence. With firm determination and extraordinary courage, it will leverage the wisdom of all employees, pool their strength, actively innovate, pursue excellence, and develop steadily, striving to achieve the group's strategic goal of being "China's first, Asia's leading, and world-class." As CITS Head Office implements its new strategic plan, we sincerely invite aspiring individuals who wish to devote themselves to the tourism industry, have a strong sense of career and responsibility, and can meet the needs of the positions to join us.
