Paradise Holidays Wins the Kerala Brand Leadership Awards 2023
Being recognized as an award-winning Kerala tour operator is one of the proudest moments in our journeyâand 17th March 2023 stands as a milestone for our whole team at Paradise Holidays. On this special day, we were honored with the prestigious Kerala Brand Leadership Awards 2023, hosted at the beautiful Taj Malabar Resort & Spa, Cochin.

I, Rakesh, along with our M.D. Ratheesh R Nath and Sales Director Ms. Sreedevi, started from our office at 8:45 AM. Even with little traffic at some key junctions, we reached the venue comfortably and on time, excited for what awaited us.
A Grand Welcome at Taj Malabar
Once we reached, we were guided through the registration counter and led to the Ravi Varma Hall where all the distinguished honorees were seated. The atmosphere was filled with pride, humility, and anticipation.

Dr. R. L. Bhatia, Founder of World CSR Day & World Sustainability, delivered the introduction speech. His stories of resilience, leadership, and innovationâespecially those captured during the Covid periodâwere inspiring.
Dr. Bhatia is known globally as a change management expert, author, trainer, and visionary leader who has influenced major paradigm shifts in quality and corporate leadership. His words truly set the perfect tone for the event.
