Two organisations support tourism awards

Two organisations yesterday presented undisclosed sponsorship packages in support of this year’s National Tourism Awards.

They are Coconut Groove Regency Hotel and Glico Group Limited.

The event, to be held on December 13, 2013, aims at celebrating excellence in the industry. It will be held on the theme, “Tourism: Gaining a Competitive Edge through Innovation and Service Excellence”.

At a presentation ceremony in Accra, the Deputy Manager in charge of Corporate Affairs of GLICO, Ms Nana Efua Rockson, said the gesture was the beginning of her company’s show of commitment to supporting the National Tourism Awards.

The Events Manager of Coconut Groove Regency Hotel, Mr Hugo Huppenbauer, said the donation was in line with the company’s corporate social responsibility and expressed the hope that the gesture would build the foundation for cordial relations between his outfit and the GTA.

For his part, the acting Chief Executive of the GTA, Mr Sampson Donkoh, who received the package, thanked the two organisations for the gesture and expressed the hope that other institutions and individuals would follow suit.
