COLABORADOR TURÍSTICO

español al inglés Mercadeo Viajes y turismo
Hi there!
Does anyone have a better solution for this term than the obvious TOURISM COLLABORATOR? I'm not sure if there's a specific term in Tourism for this kind of companies.

Here is some context:

"El COLABORADOR TURÍSTICO tendrá derecho a realizar las promociones que a continuación se detallan. Para la aplicación de dichas promociones, será requisito indispensable hacer constar el nombre de la promoción a la que se esté acogiendo el COLABORADOR TURÍSTICO tanto en el voucher como, en su caso, en la reserva. En caso de no especificarse correctamente el nombre de la promoción informada por XXX (name of the main tourism company), ésta facturará los precios establecidos en el Anexo II".

Some more:

"Promoción segundo día gratis (makes reference to a theme park): Esta promoción únicamente se aplicará a las entradas de acceso al parque que formen parte de un paquete turístico, entendiéndose por éste todo paquete vendido por el COLABORADOR TURÍSTICO, consistente en la combinación de entradas al parque con el alojamiento turístico en alguna de las provincias catalanas y consistirá en la entrega de un ticket de entrada de segundo día consecutivo de adulto/junior/senior de acceso al parque (...).
Será imprescindible, para la validez de esta promoción, que el COLABORADOR TURÍSTICO acredite a la empresa la publicación de la misma en sus catálogos.

I get the impression it refers to an independent travel agency, with no exclusivity agreement, which offers optional tours in addition to the main package sold by the wholesaler. The wholesaler may not include a visit to Port Aventura, but the agency that sells that holiday may include that possibilitl for a surcharge.
Note from asker:
It really is an independent travel agency, such as "Viajes El Corte Ingl�s". Still think of "retailer"?

Travel businesses may be large enough to be able to take over other smaller businesses that offer other travel products and services. For instance, if an airline was taken over by a tour operator, this would be an example of vertical integration; the tour operator would be looking to benefit from lower costs in allocating customers their air travel services.

This would mean that the tour operator should be able to make more profit from its overall business. The same tour operator might also take over a travel agency in order to find a more profitable way of selling its travel products and services.

The whole organisation would then be a vertically integrated travel business offering holiday packages to customers through its own retail outlets. The business should be able to control its costs more effectively and be able to communicate well with all parts of its travel operations. Problems may occur if the whole business becomes too large to operate efficiently.

If the different parts of the whole business were branded differently, say by giving each part a different name, this might be regarded as being unethical. Customers should have the right to know when there is a relationship between a tour operator and a travel agent. If not, they may believe they are getting a fair price for their holiday, when in fact the price is being kept artificially high because the operator and the agent are different parts of the same business.
