What growth opportunities have you identified for Curator Hotels and Resorts ?
In our first year , we have experienced tremendous growth . We now have more than 80 hotel members , over 80 preferred agreements with industry-leading providers , and many other benefits available , including benchmarking reports and operational workflow systems . It has been incredible to see the independent hotel industry unite and support each other under Curator ’ s leadership . We have identified more than 1,500 independent hotels in the U . S . alone that could benefit from our best-in-class operating agreements and innovative solutions curated for independent lifestyle hotels and resorts – and we plan to reach out to each and every owner and operator . Our goal is to add at least 100 hotels per year to the Collection so that we can continue to scale and drive efficiencies , cost savings , and any additional offerings our members want to see .
Independent hotels are much more challenging to operate and , therefore , much more rewarding for both operators and owners . We not only plan to grow our collection in terms of member hotels significantly but will continue to roll out new offerings that are specifically targeted to benefit independent hotel operators . We are constantly exploring new ways to provide value for our members .
