Preferred Purchasing

Given the number and variety of products the resort purchases, the resort is constantly on the lookout for products that are:

• Recyclable
• Make use of recycled or preferred materials
• Are better for the health of employees and guests
• Are intelligently (as opposed to excessively) packaged

Here are some examples of our purchasing guidelines at work:

All copy paper contains 100% post-consumer recycled content

Sourcing compostable disposables for our to-go products

Used local business to install reclaimed wood trellis for mug club rack & bar in Wild Bills

Reducing overall disposables where feasible

Inclusion of vegetarian/healthier options in our menus

Eco-friendly gear offered at Habitat and Teton Mountain Outfitters

Biodegradable cleaning products in housekeeping

Replaced all glass bottled beverages in Trap Bar with aluminum cans or drafts

Using local businesses for goods & services whenever possible

Using low VOC paint in all remodel projects

Opportunities for improving purchasing practices are as varied as the products we purchase are diverse.  Watch for many new and exciting projects to be added to this list in the future.
