LEVA Hotels & Resorts has pledged its support to the hospitality industry by continuing expansion across the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, Africa and Europe. The group has recently signed management agreements for two new hotels in Muscat and a property in Kampala.

Building up on its growth momentum, the brand is aggressively exploring further opportunities in Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Rwanda, Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda, Nigeria and Tanzania as well as Europe. It currently has an asset under negotiation in Portugal.

JS Anand, founder and chief executive officer of LEVA Hotels & Resorts, said: “Despite the challenges, it is important to focus on long-term strategies to proactively target recovery in the hospitality sector. We are confident that it is only a matter of time before our industry turns around, and therefore, all of us must continue to work together by prioritizing our goals to prepare for a better future. We remain committed to expand our footprint in our target markets offering superior brand standards and exceptional management options to hotel owners with flexible terms tailored for diverse market segments.”

In keeping with its corporate social responsibility Anand shared plans for contributing to community welfare initiatives in Africa. He stated: “We will invest back in the community as well as the development of people who work for us with an aim to improve lives.”
