THE business department at Bolton-based Travel Counsellors has appeared in a list of the Top 100 Business Travel companies in the UK.

The nine-strong team at the Churchgate company handles reservations, ticketing and management information for local and national clients.

Head of business travel Kevin Heath said: "This is a fantastic achievement for us, the first year we have been included in the Top 100 Business Travel Companies and we are delighted to come in at 62nd position." The top 100 are judged by a panel of industry experts and Business Travel World magazine.
