The Fairmont Singapore has created the world’s first aquaponic farm within the hotel, which will see the hotel supplying its 10 restaurants with fish as well as vegetables into the future.
It is all part of Singapore’s 30/30 sustainability vision where the government plans to have a minimum of 30% of the country’s food including fruit, vegetables and agriculture coming from within the country rather than imported.
On Where To From Here, The Renae’s World podcast, Renae spoke to Marcus Hanna, Managing Director of both The Fairmont and Swiss Hotels in Singapore, owned by Accor about his company’s ambitious sustainability plans and the future of five star hotels and the increasing role sustainability, and people free check-ins, will play.
Marcus also opens up his black book of insider restaurant tips in Singapore, including where to buy fabulous steaks, tasty Lebanese as well as reasonably priced champagne in Singapore.
