Product Range
Developing a greener product range is essential when creating a more sustainable tourism business. It will help you meet customers’ evolving needs, offer greater quality and diversity, as well as protect the essential resources your business relies on – keeping destinations special for your customers, into the future.
By working sustainably in destinations, you can help protect the natural environment and unique traditions and culture of the area, as well as ensuring local people benefit from the tourism to their home.
This means assessing and implementing change for sustainability throughout the whole of your supply chain - all the suppliers of goods and services that help deliver your final product to customers. You need to build sustainability into your supplier selection criteria, as well as support greater sustainability with existing suppliers.

Case Study: Responsibletravel.com
Every trip on responsibletravel.com includes a ‘Making a Difference’ section, where operators describe the positive impacts the trip will bring to the local community. Travellers are then encouraged to feed back on the responsible tourism aspects of their trip, via responsibletravel.com’s unedited, independent traveller reviews. As a result of the reviews, their partners are continually listening to feedback, and improving, in order to further maximise the positives and reduce any negative impacts of their holidays on local communities, cultures and environments.
