Spa Professional Mexico Growth Of The Industry
With the rapid growth of the tourism indus- try in Mexico over the last 10 – 20 years the natural progression is the growth of the spa industry with every high end re- sort ensuring it offers state of the art facil- ities to its guests. With predictions of 5% increase per annum in Mexico’s Travel & Tourism Economy GDP, some 2 million in- dustry sector jobs will be created by 2019.
So where will the spa staff come from? Already the industry faces challenges re- cruiting enough of the ‘right’ candidates? There are colleges and academies open- ing to train therapists all over the country, however here in Mexico as with the rest of the world, the rapid growth of any indus- try results in ‘growing pains’.
The Challenge of Recruitment Every spa would like to recruit only the best therapists with the best skills and qualifications but the reality is that one spa cannot recruit only the best in the country. Therefore recruiting often comes down to potential where candidates are
chosen for the skills, qualifications and ex- perience they posses but are lead into ex- cellence by the support they are provided with along the way. Similarly the positions of supervisors, managers and directors of spas will all be increasing in an already competitive market. The support required for spa staff can come from many differ- ent avenues, from the management team, the colleagues they work alongside, the training programs supplied by the product providers or in-house trainers and the in- formation from the spa industry across the world.
The Support
Spa Professional Mexico magazine and website is here to support the spas of Mexico by delivering knowledge from across the spa industry to all levels allow- ing accessibility to the information shap- ing the future of spa. With reviews of sup- pliers, new product launches, spa trends and much more we can ensure the Spa Directors of Mexico know the support that is available and where they can receive it.
The quoted percentage of tourists visit- ing Mexico from North America ranges from 70-85% and these tourists bring with them a wealth of information regard- ing spas, treatments, skincare, cosmetics, brands, equipments etc. We are no longer in a world where all spa professionals, generally speaking, know more than their guests. With our guests having an infinite amount of information at their fingertips we must ensure to keep our industry in Mexico well educated also.
With Spa Professional Mexico magazine and website available to all in the indus- try, spa directors, managers, supervisors, therapists, receptionists, hotel managers, purchasing managers, providers and edu- cation facilities can all stay up to date with the latest news in the industry.
