Wris and Wris Tours: what's the difference?

Erki Urva and Anne Samlik were quoted in last week's Aripaev article “Return of the Estonian tourism businesswomen”. Based on the article, readers might have felt as if Wris had left something undone. But in the interests of clarity the difference must be made between AS Wris Tours and AS Wris. AS Wris, known among clients as Wris Travel Bureau, has been operating since 1991 and concentrates on supplying work-related trips. Wris’s five-month services come to EEK 42.5 million (EUR 2.7 million), up 11% on last year. Today AS Wris has four branches and 33 employees.
