Green Key Global Partners with Alō Index to Transform How Sustainable Hotels Win Corporate Travel Business

New partnership combines Green Key Global’s trusted certification framework with Alō Index’s sustainability intelligence platform to help hotels convert sustainability achievements into a commercial advantage.

Green Key Global, the hospitality industry’s leading sustainability certification program in North America, today announced a strategic partnership with Alō Index, the hotel sustainability intelligence platform purpose-built for corporate travel procurement.

This collaboration marks a major advancement in how hotels communicate verified sustainability performance to enterprise travel buyers, procurement leaders, and business travelers.

By combining Green Key Global’s trusted certification framework with Alō Index’s comparative sustainability intelligence platform, hotels can now turn their sustainability achievements into a competitive commercial advantage — increasing visibility, strengthening RFP responses, and creating more opportunities for qualified corporate travel demand.

Hotels across North America are facing growing pressure from corporate travel buyers and procurement teams to demonstrate verified sustainability performance. At the same time, enterprises are actively seeking lodging partners that align with their environmental and social goals. Alō Index helps bridge this gap by enabling standardized hotel sustainability data to be surfaced in a way that supports faster, more informed sourcing decisions.

“This partnership is about helping hotels unlock greater business value from the sustainability work they are already doing. Green Key certification has long been a mark of trust and credibility. Through Alō Index, that credibility now becomes more discoverable and actionable for corporate travel buyers.”
— Anick Levesque, Managing Director, Green Key Global

Alō Index enables hotels to submit sustainability data once and distribute it on demand to enterprise buyers, reducing repetitive data requests and improving procurement efficiency.

“Hotels are investing significantly in sustainability, and they deserve a clearer path to ROI. Together with Green Key Global, we are creating a smarter ecosystem where verified sustainability performance will help hotels win more business opportunities.”
— Anna Feinberg, CEO & Co-Founder, Alō Index

This partnership supports Green Key Global’s mission to advance measurable sustainability outcomes across the lodging sector while helping members translate sustainability leadership into commercial growth.
