Green Globe Certification appoints accredited auditor for Sri Lanka and Maldives Islands
Green Globe Certification continues to build and develop its global presence with the appointment of STING Consultant’s CEO Ruchi Gunewardene, as its accredited auditor for Sri Lanka and Maldives Islands.
Guido Bauer, CEO of Green Globe Certification, said, "Our certification is an independent recognition of businesses’ and communities’ sustainable achievements. The methodology we use benchmarks environmental activities and documents corporate social responsibility activities against Green Globe’s international standard."
The appointment of STING Consultant’s CEO Ruchi Gunewardene provides professional and cost-effective auditing services to Green Globe clients in these countries, as well as delivery of related sustainability services," Mr. Bauer added.
STING Consultants CEO Ruchi Gunewardene said, "This is a timely initiative, which enables us to offer sustainability certification as Sri Lanka is about to capitalize on the expected tourism boom. Green Globe Certification is well recognized especially amongst environmentally-conscious European tourists."
"Whilst many of the hotels are planning on upgrading their properties, they also need to adopt sustainable work practices, which have significant cost benefits. Green Globes’ paperless online certification system is able to provide the capability for hotels to comply with both local and international standards, which can be a powerful marketing tool," said Mr. Gunewardene.
