The Sustainable Business Circle is a joint initiative between RIBH MENA and the Global Compact Network Egypt in the form of a monthly meeting for sustainability practitioners to discuss challenges around CSR or IB. Each session is always followed by an informal breakfast for further networking and collaboration between participants. The Sustainable Business Circle aims at creating a regular, interactive setting in order to obtain tangible outcomes towards sustainable development in Egypt, introducing new business ideas and trends. It keeps momentum on CSR and IB going, gains a pulse on what companies need/want, collects a database of CSR/IB practioners in Egypt, and gathers case study presentations on challenges in Egypt. The community is also connected on the LinkedIn group: Cairo Sustainable Business Circle.

Followed by the “Grown in Egypt” Female Chef of the Year competition that took place at HACE ’14 Fair which RIBH MENA participated in organizing with the ECA. And finally, the “Farm to Fork” Conference - the first sustainable food conference to take place in Egypt at the Semiramis Pavillion, in collaboration with Semiramis Intercontinental, ECA, and the Chamber of Food Industries.

As a champion for responsible and inclusive business practices in Egypt and the MENA region we want to set an example by greening our own events. We can only succeed in this if we work closely with our suppliers, including catering providers. Here is the Semiramis Intercontinental Egypt implementation of the catering concept we developed together.

FairTrade Coffee. Coffee with the FairTrade label means that producers get a higher-than-usual price for their coffee and that a percentage of profits goes into community projects. In Egypt, FairTrade Coffee us for example available from Carrefour.

Reduced packaging and waste. Sugar served in bowls rather than using individual sachets. Paper cups, plastic cutlery, plastic tubs and other consumables are avoided.

More seasonal fruit and vegetables grown in Egypt on menus and in dishes to support our local farmers and avoid long transport routes (and associated costs). You might even think of working with small farmers to provide specialty produce such as micro-herbs and edible flowers.

Put up signs that inform guests that the coffee is FairTrade, the tea is organic and flowers are grown locally.

Packed leftovers for take away. Food will be eaten later and shared with people at the office and the community.

If you want your events to be catered sustainably, contact Mohamed Tawfik: mohamed.tawfik@ihg.com

Through this, businesses can tap into our business network for marketing benefits as well as make direct sales at our events. Dokkan Dilwa2ty allows a diversity of set-ups according to the theme and business being hosted. It aims to support and promote inclusive business models in Egypt to inspire and push sustainable development forward in the whole region.

Through many activities relating to and involving crafts producers over the past year, RIBH MENA has gathered sufficient amounts of information on the crafts sector in Egypt. Formats include the pop-up shop “Dokkan Dilwa2ty” which brought producers from various governorates to Cairo and a series of workshops held in cooperation with GIZ EconoWin; “Amayel Edayya” which looked more into the problems that the supply side faces in order to reach the market and final consumer. Furthermore, RIBH MENA has produced several case studies on the sector, and is running a corporate gift survey in partnership with a start-up working in the field “Sandmade”. Finally, RIBH MENA had run a crafts campaign in partnership with BridgEgypt in December 2013.

One of the activities RIBH MENA focuses on is Sustainable Tourism in Egypt and the MENA region. We participated in a series of eco-lodge workshops conducted by GIZ’s Private Sector Development Programme (PSDP) in Fayoum, Baharia, and Aswan. Based on the workshops, we are now developing with PSDP an eco-tourism manual of two parts; one for tourists who are interested in eco-tourism in Egypt with destinations and contacts, and one for lodges who want to operate sustainably. We also offer one-on-one trainings to lodges or hotels intrested in developing their business models with eco-social innovation. We bring four experts from sustainable tourism and related fields to work with you free of charge for three full days to: • Analyse the business to map existing eco-social credentials • Identify new potentials for activities related to environmental footprint

and social impact • Draw up an action plan for the implementation of the most promising activities, including identification of possible partners and funders • Point out avenues for improved marketing and market access of the lodge or hotel RIBH MENA also wrote 3 case studies on ecolodges in Egypt and is now running a monthly Ecotourism Meetup with PSDP to discuss challenges and opportunities of ecotourism in Egypt.

Together with RIBH hubs in Jakarta and Pretoria, we’re creating a framework for international inclusive tourism.
