DR. JOLLY ANTONY A MULTI-SECTOR STRATEGY: WHERE INNOVATION MEETS INCLUSION

UNIQUE TIMES

|

August - September 2025

From a humble start to building a cross-continental empire, Dr Jolly Antony's story is a testament to what unyielding passion, vision, and bold ambition can achieve.

DR. JOLLY ANTONY A MULTI-SECTOR STRATEGY: WHERE INNOVATION MEETS INCLUSION

In the annals of migrant Keralites who struck gold overseas, the name of Dr Jolly Antony deserves special mention as he dared to dream big and carve an empire spanning Travel and Tourism, Hospitality, Wellness, E-commerce cum Direct selling, Farm Tourism and Education. The Founder and CEO of UAE-based Al Safina Travel and Tourism, Dr Jolly comes across as a visionary, storyteller and globetrotter. A global citizen who has crisscrossed 90 countries, his passport is not just a document. Instead it is a roadmap of dreams, business strategies, and human connections built across borders. Beneath the layers of business accomplishments lies the unwavering spirit of man who did not put a period mark to ambition and inspiration.

The Spark That Ignited a Global Journey

Dr. Jolly's early career was shaped by his education in Travel and Tourism and a decade of hands-on industry experience, where he climbed the ladder to become General Manager. The knowledge and insights he gained during those years laid the foundation for his own entrepreneurial leap. In 2005, he launched Al Safina Travel and Tourism in UAE and today it boasts several branches in UAE and India.

But his vision extended far beyond ticketing and tour packages. With the wisdom earned from travelling to nearly 90 countries, he began to understand that travel and hospitality are inseparable, and that realisation planted the seeds for something bigger.
