A Team Devoted to Service

Our core principles – centered on the values of trust, empowerment, accountability, and mesh – result from our shared belief that we can transform the communities we engage. TEAM is truly a way of life at GWS Hospitality.  It influences our approach to project management. It motivates us to seek new ways to build value for our clients. It inspires us to activate the communities in which we work by hiring local labor, executing charitable donations of furniture and equipment, or lending a hand – literally – by moving boxes or cleaning sidewalks.

We’re part of your team, which means that we stand behind our commitment to your project’s success – even if it means doing a little extra to make it happen.
