Stella Hospitality, a premium name in the UAE’s luxury hospitality landscape, has been awarded the prestigious EcoVadis Gold Medal — a global benchmark recognizing top-tier sustainability and ESG performance. This accolade places Stella among the top 5% of companies worldwide assessed by EcoVadis, reaffirming its leadership in responsible business practices. The achievement was realized through the strategic ESG advisory support from Growlity, Inc. USA, a global leader in sustainability and ESG consulting.
EcoVadis evaluates companies on critical environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria, including ethics, labor and human rights, sustainable procurement, and environmental impact. Stella Hospitality’s Gold Medal rating highlights its robust sustainability programs, ethical operations, and responsible sourcing aligned with international standards.
Growlity, Inc. USA, known for supporting ESG transformation across more than 25 countries, provided Stella Hospitality with end-to-end advisory — including materiality mapping, policy and reporting enhancement, data-backed evidence preparation, and audit readiness. This collaboration enabled Stella to strengthen its ESG foundations and shine on the international stage.
