Thanks, any idea what "TT" stands for?

It may not stand for anything, just their name? It's a privately owned business so might even just be the owners initials?

TT is internationally known as Telegraphic Transfer.

 

The money exchange booths are unlikely to have much foreign currency on hand, like the bank branches, they need to order it, based on the amount involved. Banks and exchange companies don't like to hold foreign currency because of the exchange rate risk over time.
