Progress International Embarks on a New Chapter with Holmes Consulting GSA

 

Progress International, a leading name in cruise industry consultancy, training, and recruitment since 2008, has proudly supported over 12+ internationally recognized cruise lines, 10+ tourism authorities, and trained more than 75,000 crew across all levels, while also assisting a wide network of concessionaires, agents, suppliers, and management companies.

​

Progress International has strategically rebranded to strengthen its established cruise industry associations. Founders and cruise industry veterans Grant and Sharon Holmes transitioned the Progress International brand into their newly formed company, Holmes Consulting GSA, now headquartered in the DUQE Free Zone aboard the iconic Queen Elizabeth 2 (QE2).

​

DUQE is a unique Free Zone and modern business hub, predominantly attracting maritime companies, located on the Quarter Deck of the historic QE2 cruise ship berthed at Port Rashid, Dubai. Owned by the Port, Customs and Free Zone Corporation (PCFC), DUQE offers Holmes Consulting GSA a prestigious base just minutes from Dubai’s major landmarks.
