Driving Decarbonisation Across the Supply Chain
At the heart of the recognition is Achieving Net Zero Together, Accor’s comprehensive programme designed to reduce carbon emissions across its extensive supply chain. The initiative focuses on collaborating closely with suppliers—particularly those responsible for food, construction materials, and operational services—to help them measure, reduce, and ultimately decarbonise their emissions.
By providing tools, guidance, and shared targets, Accor is working to align its partners with science-based climate goals, reinforcing the understanding that meaningful climate action in hospitality must extend beyond hotel operations alone.
A Sector-Wide Commitment to Climate Action
Accor’s approach reflects a broader shift within the tourism industry, where operators are increasingly addressing indirect emissions, often referred to as Scope 3 emissions, which typically account for the majority of a hotel group’s carbon footprint. Through collective action and supplier engagement, Achieving Net Zero Together aims to accelerate progress toward net-zero emissions while maintaining operational resilience and guest experience.
The programme also supports Accor’s wider sustainability roadmap, which includes energy efficiency, responsible sourcing, waste reduction, and the promotion of low-carbon solutions across its global portfolio of brands.
Recognition with Global Impact
The World Sustainable Travel & Hospitality Awards celebrate organisations that are reshaping the future of travel through responsible and regenerative practices. Accor’s win underscores the growing importance of collaborative climate strategies and positions the company as a benchmark for environmental leadership in hospitality.
As climate accountability becomes central to tourism’s future, Accor’s recognition signals both industry momentum and the critical role large hospitality groups can play in driving systemic change—proving that meaningful progress toward net zero is most effective when achieved together.
