Tourvest Integrated Tourism Group (TITG) is leveraging tourism as a force for good by championing local community development and sustainability across South Africa and Africa. Beyond the economic benefits, tourism is crucial in cultural preservation, infrastructure development, entrepreneurship, social understanding and environmental conservation.
The idea that collaboration between a broad range of stakeholders can help to improve the shared value of a destination is nothing new but it is imperative we create a pathway for this transition on a broad scale, says Tendani Nelwamondo , Chief Sustainability Officer at TITG.
Tourvest Accommodation (aha), Travel Services (TTS), Retail, Destination Management (TDM), Financial Services (TFS) and Adventure are all involved in this drive to do good for the sector, society and the economy. Our investments are targeted to deliver broad benefits across the entire value chain, says Nelwamondo.
TITGs initiatives highlight the positive ripple effect of tourism, fostering entrepreneurship and new business ventures while supporting local communities.
