We have ten deals in conversations in China and that could climb significantly over six to 12 months and reach 20.Said Jay S Witzel, president and chief executive officer, Carlson Hotels Worldwide.
He also revealed that they have a Regent under construction in Ningbo and are about to sign another Regent deal in Shanghai in August.
Carlson is stepping up its presence in China, added Witzel, We know we want to have a presence in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Ningbo and maybe Shenzhen. We would like to be in Hong Kong where we are not.
