2021 SERVE 360 REPORT ESG PROGRESS AT MARRIOTT INTERNATIONAL → 42 Supporting Diverse-Owned Businesses J.W.E., an Asian-American owned business certified with the National Minority Supplier Development Council (NMSDC), has been a trusted supplier to Marriott International since 2017 when they were awarded the Sheraton Wardrobe program. This contract awarded J.W.E. Inc. the opportunity to make all custom designed uniforms for associates in the U.S., Canada, and Central & Latin America. J.W.E. Inc. owns their own manufacturing, which allows them to be nimble and provide more custom patterns using high-quality fabrics. In 2020, due to the impacts of COVID-19, Marriott's relationship with J.W.E. Inc. expanded to include the manufacturing of masks and PPE to support recovery efforts. We continued to invest in the growth and development of businesses owned by people from historically disadvantaged communities through our partnerships with the National Minority Supplier Development Council, The National LGBT Chamber of Commerce, the Women's Business Enterprise National Council and other business equity organizations. Marriott hotels around the world also continue to support the company’s global supplier diversity goals through partnerships with diversity organizations. In Peru, Marriott hotels hosted a virtual conference with WEConnect International to connect with women-owned businesses and discuss new opportunities. Hotel Owners Our commitment to promoting diverse owners includes introducing successful diverse and women business owners to the hospitality industry and educating them on potential investment opportunities. In 2020, we exceeded our goal to reach 1,500 diverse- and women-owned open hotels by the end of 2020, with 1,556 diverse- or women-owned open hotels. We also set a goal to achieve 3,000 diverse-owned hotels by 2025.
