Leisure and hospitality

Supporting hospitality and leisure operators to reduce costs, cut carbon and meet rising sustainability challenges.

Putting your customers first

Leisure and hospitality businesses create five-star experiences in a demanding industry landscape of rising costs, tightening environmental regulations and supply chain disruptions.

Hospitality businesses have even reportedly been seen as ‘high risk’ when trying to procure their energy.

With surging energy costs now accounting for a large proportion of operating costs, finding ways to cut down your consumption – reducing your costs and carbon emissions in turn – is vital.

Reducing costs and supercharging environmental impact

We want our hospitality and leisure clients to be able to focus on what’s most important – your customers.

Every business is unique in portfolio and requirements; your required solutions to control costs and become more energy efficient will be too.

We can help your business to monitor, understand and enhance your utilities performance across sites with a tailored package of solutions.

We can support you with identifying the most effortless measures with the shortest payback times – supercharging your environmental impact, bolstering competitiveness and keeping key stakeholders on your side.

“One of the real strengths of working with Inspired is their people and the teams we work with on a daily basis from our account manager that has an overview of everything that we work together on, through to the energy procurement team and also the ESG team. It’s been really useful to know that we have someone at the end of the phone that we can call on short notice to get that really detailed advice that we need, as well as the long-term strategic piece.”

Victoria Hadley, Head of Social Impact & Sustainability, MIHP Nuffield Health

“The move from another energy consultant to Inspired was seamless. They are friendly, professional, flexible and can work to some very tight time frames. Their web portal is user friendly. They are jargon busters; everything is clearly explained so everyone in the business can focus on reducing our energy consumption.”

“We receive an exceptional level of service from Inspired. They are always quick to respond, for both our short-term and long-term needs. This service has been instrumental in keeping our water costs under control.”

Kris Sutton, Group Grounds and Utilities Manager, Darwin Escapes

“Energy is a key overhead cost for hospitality businesses, and the Inspired team has offered us indispensable support in ensuring the hotels in our portfolio can make informed energy decisions in a volatile market.

“Although Inspired offers us diverse support for numerous clients – from procurement advice to ensuring our hotels are making the most of their energy data – our dedicated Account Manager has remained a single point of contact from our end. This has helped ensure straightforward collaboration throughout.”

Paul Smith, Head of Procurement at RBH Hospitality Management
