Study Tour: Nishat Hotel, Johar Town, Lahore

Hospitality marketing is the act of marketing hospitality business to the public. The goal is to raise awareness of the business, products and/or services, usually by highlighting unique selling points (USPs). How this is done can vary from company to company and sector to sector. A restaurant may wish to market itself differently from a hotel. However, because most hospitality businesses offer services, the emphasis is usually always on the customer experience offered by the company.

Students from the Department of Marketing, Operations and Supply Chain visited Nishat Hotel on 11-06-22. The Students, along with Dr Raja Irfan Sabir, were received and coordinated by Ms Hafiza Amna, Event Planning Department.

Study Tour: Sapphire Textiles, Sheikhupura

Product feature or product design/aesthetics as the key to brand success is a highly debatable subject. Product design is important as that is the first thing that anyone notices off the shelf in retail or on the website which attracts the attention of the people. The product feature is equally important as if it lacks key elements that define the product, it’s of no use either. Therefore, both the design and the feature need to go hand in hand to build a successful brand
