Mission
Achieve a higher standard of sustainable business practices in the Charlotte area hospitality, travel and tourism industry.
Vision
Position Charlotte’s hospitality industry as a leader in social and environmental sustainability through strong advocacy and an unyielding commitment to green policies and practices.
Social Responsibility
As published by Statista Research, the global hospitality market reached nearly $4.7 trillion in 2023 and is forecast to grow to $5.8 trillion in 2027. The Charlotte Region alone reached a record $7.3 billion in direct visitor spending in 2023.
This massive industry requires the abundant use and consumption of vast resources and with that comes great social responsibility to be good stewards of those resources and our environment.
An abundance of resources is required to host conferences, conventions, concerts, sporting events, and festivals, and to operate tourist attractions, hotels, and restaurants. It is the responsibility of the industry to minimize its use of environmentally harmful resources, source responsibly, and reduce waste wherever possible.
