The travel agent here specialises in flights (and phone deals) enabling the many different nationalities living in Thornton Heath to stay in touch with their countries of origin. Most of the shopfronts along Brigstock Road's eastern end are festooned with trade stickers, frequently for firms fitting or repairing storefront shutters; presumably the reasoning is that if you come to open your shop and the shutter won't go up, you'll ring the number that's there under your nose.
