CAM RANH, Vietnam (April 17, 2025) – A seasoned hospitality professional with more than two decades’ experience working for some of the industry’s biggest names in the Middle East, Europe, Asia and the United States, has been appointed chief commercial officer at Alma Resort Cam Ranh.

French national Frederic Savoye joins the award-winning 30-hectare beachfront resort on Vietnam’s Cam Ranh peninsula after working in the Middle East as vice president of sales and marketing for Fairmont Raffles Hotels International in the Middle East, Africa and India, and Hilton Worldwide’s regional commercial director for both Western and Southern Europe as well as Eastern Europe, Russia and Turkey.

He was Kempinski Hotels’ country director of sales and marketing for Egypt, and Sofitel Luxury Hotels’ vice president of sales, pricing, distribution and revenue for Northern, Central and Eastern Europe.

Savoye studied an undergraduate degree in economy and management sciences and a master’s degree in finance, marketing and management sciences with the University of Paris in the mid to late 90s. During the noughties, he was the Sofitel Bucharest World Trade Center’s room division director before progressing to director of sales and marketing roles at Novotel New York Times Square and for AccorHotels in the Czech Republic.

In his new role with Alma, he will head Alma’s Commercial Division, overseeing sales, marketing and reservations.

“With a strong background in commercial, operations, and asset management, Frederic brings profound global experience in hospitality and leisure management with prestigious organisations to the table,” said Alma’s managing director Herbert Laubichler-Pichler. “We look forward to his strategic yet creative approach to overseeing our Commercial Division and building upon Alma’s many achievements since its December 2019 debut.”
