Corporate Responsibility

Tourvest is committed to being a responsible corporate citizen of the communities and the environment in which it operates. It realises that its continued success is not just a factor of how it performs operationally or financially, but also on a demonstrable commitment to a positive and mutually beneficial relationship with every stakeholder affected by its business and the wellbeing of the environment.

To this effect, one of Tourvest's key stategic imperatives is to positively impact the long-term sustainability of society, particularly the communities in which Tourvest operates, and the tourism attractions on which much of its business is based.

Tourvest's sustainability approach has traditionally focused on the following areas:

Corporate responsibility, realising that its continued success lies with the ability to play a leading role in the development of the travel and tourism industry and to support important industry initiatives.

Corporate Social Investment (CSI), including socio-economic development contributions as defined by the B-BBEE Codes of Good Practice, aimed at positively impacting society.

Employee Volunteer Programmes, in order to increase the visibility of and affinity in the Tourvest brand in the community while instilling the group's corporate culture and values within its employees.

Skills Development, especially in the area of travel and tourism education, with a focus on developing skills at a grassroots level in an industry where quality consultants are becoming increasingly scarce.

Community Development, particularly in the field of job creation through craft development and support for the Siyazisiza Trust as well as lodge ownership in order that rural community members, in particular women, may share the success and growth of Tourvest.

Africa's Natural Heritage, it will assist in sustaining destinations that will become increasingly attractive to foreign visitors whose needs will further stimulate job creation and local economies.
