NH Hotel Group has been recognised as one of the most sustainable leaders in its sector after being evaluated for the second year by SAM, the sustainable investment agency that evaluates the companies that make up the Dow Jones Sustainability Index. The Company ranks third amongst the most sustainable hotel companies in the world, having placed in fifth position last year, consolidating itself as one of the leading companies in sustainability within the industry worldwide.

SAM annually evaluates companies that develop best corporate practices in sustainability, focusing mainly on three elements: economic, social and environmental. In this comprehensive evaluation, NH Hotel Group has been awarded “best-in-class” in the industry in nine of the 23 criteria evaluated: Customer Relationship Management, Supply Chain Management, Fiscal Strategy, Environmental Report, Climate Strategy, Social Report, Labour Practice Indicators, Human Capital Development and Occupational Health and Safety. The Group achieved the highest score possible in six of these: Customer Relationship Management; Fiscal Strategy; Environmental Report; Climate Strategy; Social Report and Human Capital Development.

The Group has also received recognition from the prestigious Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) Climate Change index, an international, non-profit organisation that promotes sustainable economies, with a ‘B’ rating in its annual ranking. With this score, NH Hotel Group once again receives recognition for its vision of positioning sustainability and its fight against climate change as a strategic value of the Company, which has been a lever of value for the whole Group for more than a decade.
