Sustainability

IHG Global Procurement is committed to operating responsibly and to helping shape the future of 
responsible tourism and travel. We uphold these values through responsible sourcing – a 
buying approach whereby one actively and consciously sources and procures products and 
services in an ethical, sustainable, and socially conscious way. By promoting responsible sourcing at both the hotel and corporate levels, we support IHG’s Journey to Tomorrow and our purpose of True Hospitality for Good.

Doing Business Responsibly

We work with suppliers who share our commitment to operating responsibly and adopt ethical work practices that positively impact the planet, our people, and our communities. Empowered by our procurement platforms, our Procurement teams play a crucial role in performing due diligence checks on suppliers.  Hotel Owners who utilize the IHG Procurement Program can have confidence that an IHG approved supplier has undergone the IHG responsible business due diligence process. This is part of our offering to Hotel Owners when participating in our procurement programs.
