Discussing the further growth plans for the brand, Menon explains, “The vision of the LaLit as a brand as envisaged by our Executive Directive for the year 2018 is ‘Pure Love’ where we celebrate inclusivity. We intend to become a gender neutral organisation. While this is not to be considered as a marketing opportunity, our future events and campaigns will revolve around these initiatives. With 13 hotels across the country, we are able to offer the travel trade with a wide array of destinations.”
