Case Study: Hospitality New Zealand builds a practical sustainability strategy with thinkstep-anz

Hospitality New Zealand launches sustainability strategy with thinkstep-anz and 12 priority topics

Hospitality New Zealand, an organization representing over 2,500 hospitality businesses, needed a practical sustainability strategy that could be adopted by members at various stages of their journey without adding extra burden following the pandemic. They partnered with the sustainability firm thinkstep-anz to conduct a materiality assessment and develop this strategy.

thinkstep-anz identified 12 priority topics through member consultation and translated these findings into a clear strategy with plain English infographics and practical tools. This resulted in the launch of Hospitality New Zealand's first sustainability strategy and a new Low Carbon program. Within weeks, over 20 businesses had joined the program, with members reporting reduced costs and a lower carbon footprint.
