Swisstrade is delighted to announce that our team is participating in the Push-Up Challenge this June to push for better mental health. From 1-25 June, our team will attempt to complete over 13,000 push-ups to help raise awareness of the increasing number of Australians dying by suicide and to support the Push For Better Foundation, Lifeline and Movember.
Since 1997 Swisstrade has strived to help Australian hotel owners and operators challenge the status quo in their selection of guest room supplies and equipment. Partnering with hoteliers early in the design and development phase allows Swisstrade to share knowledge of the latest trends, brands and products, to guide operators on more sustainable and economical choices, and to impart recommendations that elevate the overall guest journey.
Since its establishment in 1997, sourcing sustainable and eco-friendly hotel supplies and amenities has been a priority for Swisstrade, who recently demonstrated their continued commitment to sustainability practices by becoming a member of Ecotourism Australia.
