THE FRONT BOOT DISCOVERY SNAPS UP TOP PARKS Discovery Parks has acquired the Top Parks brand, creating Australia’s largest network of parks. Under a new licensing model, Top Parks member parks will remain independently owned but will form part of the growing Discovery Parks network. The combined group creates a network of more than 220 parks and a loyalty base of over 140,000 camping enthusiasts, making it the single largest group of caravan, holiday and resort parks in the country, Discovery CEO Grant Wilckens said. “It’s the logical next step for Discovery,” he said. “Our customers travel all over Australia and we want to offer them great places to stay and loyalty rewards, even where we don’t own our own parks.” NEW! With the fresh smell of lavender + Under the agreement, both the Discovery Parks and Top Parks brands will be retained, allowing for differentiation between the company-owned and licensed parks. Mr Wilckens said the deal would provide licensed parks with access to Discovery Parks’ greater purchasing power as Australia’s largest park owner-operator, as well as its digital marketing expertise.
