Global sustainability network, the Sustainable Hospitality Alliance, is delighted to be working with Marriott International as the charity temporarily locates its London headquarters in the Marriott International offices in Fetter Yard, Holborn.

The Sustainable Hospitality Alliance will be based in Marriott’s Holborn offices until at least Q2 2023, with Marriott providing space in its state-of-the-art Europe, Middle East and Africa regional office until the charity finds a permanent London base. This new office location marks a period of continued growth for the Alliance which brings the industry together to address key challenges facing the planet and its people. Last year they widened their membership to include other parts of the hotel value chain to increase joined up action and shared responsibility across the different stakeholders in the hospitality business model. In March this year, the Alliance also launched their Pathway to Net Positive Hospitality setting an ambitious vision for the industry to make a positive impact on environmental issues including climate change, biodiversity loss, and waste, in addition to working on social issues including human rights and inclusive employment.
Marriott International is committed to helping to address some of the world’s most pressing social, environmental and economic issues. Their sustainability and social impact platform, Serve 360: Doing Good in Every Direction, guides their efforts which include a commitment to set science-based emissions reduction targets with a goal to reach net-zero emissions by no later than 2050.
Glenn Mandziuk, Chief Executive Officer, Sustainable Hospitality Alliance, said: “Our organisation is built on collaborative action – across our members, the wider hotel industry, their business associates and other strategic partners – and this office will enable our team to work together on shared environmental and social solutions. We are grateful for our partnership with Marriott International as we transition from remote working towards a permanent HQ. Coming out of the pandemic, we are seeing a huge momentum across the industry, and beyond, for sustainability, and this workspace will enable our charity to continue its evolution and growth.”
Dani Murray, Vice President, Business Finance & Administration, Europe, Marriott International, said: “We are delighted to welcome the Sustainable Hospitality Alliance to our office space. At Marriott International, we take our commitment to environmental, social and governance extremely seriously and we value the essential work of this global sustainability network. We look forward to working closely with the Sustainable Hospitality Alliance over the coming months and welcome the opportunity to support the charity’s growth and further drive collaborative action across the wider hospitality industry.”
