Creador is banking on MG’s low-cost platform to shake up key markets like North Asia and Europe. The challenge? Scaling globally while keeping MG’s lean and efficient DNA intact.

Private equity firm Creador has acquired a controlling stake in Southeast Asian B2B hospitality marketplace MG Group, positioning the company for global expansion.

Founded in Indonesia, MG Group connects over 8,000 global buyers with more than 350,000 accommodation suppliers.
