“Being the first hotel in Ghana and possibly in West Africa, to acquire both certifications is a proud accomplishment for our Accra City Hotel ladies and gentlemen, for consistently upholding uncompromising standards in food safety, assuring our guests with trust when visiting our restaurant, banquets and outside catering. Obtaining ISO 22000 and certifications will continue to strengthen the hotel’s credibility and reputation, build customer satisfaction and trust, reduce operating costs and increase operational efficiency.
The ISO 14001 standard specifies a path for continual improvement and control of Accra City Hotel’s environmental performance. It enables the Hotel to identify and control the environmental aspects and impact of its products, processes, and services and also to improve its environmental performance. I am very convinced that Hospitality has a huge role to play in the future of our Country, and international standards and certifications are major pillars in going forward,” Roman Krabel said.
