With this in mind, we have been working on barrier-free and environmental measures. In particular, our promotion of universal services, which we have pioneered in the industry, has been highly praised, and on September 10, 2021, we received certification under the “Mental Barrier-Free Certification System for Tourist Facilities” established by the Japan Tourism Agency. Additionally, our company received the Sapporo Chamber of Commerce and Industry’s “Reiwa 5 SDGs Management Award General Award.” With this membership, we will be able to utilize GSTC’s specialized knowledge and worldwide network regarding SDG quality in tourism. As we welcome many foreign tourists, we will provide all our guests with a comfortable and environmentally friendly stay based on international standards and contribute to the
realization of a sustainable society.
