SOFIAC, Canada’s largest private sector energy efficiency and decarbonization initiative, is proud to announce its approval as an official vendor in the Green Key Global Vendor Program. This prestigious recognition underscores SOFIAC’s commitment to sustainability.

Green Key Global is a leading certification body empowering hospitality businesses in North America to achieve excellence in sustainability. The Green Key Global Vendor Program connects vetted vendors with certified establishments, promoting responsible products and services across the hospitality industry.

As a Preferred Vendor, SOFIAC will provide investment solutions that Green Key Global members can use to fully finance the costs of projects to reduce GHG emissions. This partnership reflects SOFIAC’s dedication to reducing environmental impact and promoting sustainable practices within the industry.

“We are very pleased to join the Green Key Global program and to offer its members access to SOFIAC’s investment and expertise,” said Ashley Jones, Director of Development at SOFIAC. “The hospitality industry faces unique challenges in decarbonizing and upgrading aging infrastructure, often constrained by limited capital and competing operational priorities. SOFIAC’s solution allows members to undertake deep energy retrofits and infrastructure improvements without using their own CAPEX. This enables more establishments to overcome financial barriers, reduce energy consumption, and realize both long-term cost savings and enhanced sustainability performance.” 

“Welcoming SOFIAC to the Green Key Global Vendor Program aligns perfectly with our mission to support hotels in their sustainability initiatives,” stated Anick Levesque, Managing Director of Green Key Global. “Together, we are empowering hospitality leaders to create a positive environmental impact.”
