Footprint audit process

The Footprint Audit process is designed to help you in measuring your environmental, economic, and social-cultural impacts while supporting and enhancing the positive impacts of your operation.

Your reward will be the Footprint certificate to display, with the ability to highlight your Ecofriendly certification on websites, brochures, in literature, in your rooms, on social media, or anywhere else you see fit. The more to highlight it the more value it will have to your business.
