Yucatán is growing in the attention to tourists with quality services that provide certainty in consumption, with the certification by the Ministry of Tourism Development (SEFOTUR) of 12 companies with the Distinctive H, which will be added to the 90 that currently exist in the state, and 155 obtained the National Tourism Registry (RNT).
The Undersecretary of Sustainable Tourism Development of SEFOTUR, Raúl Paz Noriega, highlighted the importance of the certification of companies in the sector to improve the provision of tourism services and the attention of contact personnel of the entity seeking to increase the satisfaction and health security of tourists and visitors in the state.
He pointed out that the actions promoted by SEFOTUR are included in the framework of the Tourism Quality Model, aimed at promoting and supporting companies in the sector in training and certification, which through the different distinctions guarantee excellence in different areas, as well as providing support and guidance to companies to carry out the process of the National Tourism Registry (RNT).
In the case of the Distintivo H, he explained, it is a recognition, valid for one year, granted by the Federal Tourism Secretariat to those fixed food and beverage establishments (restaurants in general and hotels, as well as cafeterias, inns, among others), for complying with the hygiene standards established by the Mexican Standard NMX-F605 NORMEX 2018.
In the presence of the Director of Quality and Business Competitiveness of SEFOTUR, Diana Parra Manzano, Paz Noriega highlighted the significance for companies of obtaining the National Tourism Registry, to provide certainty to visitors, and to be part of the public catalog of tourism service providers in the country.
The RNT, he indicated, constitutes the mechanism that allows the Federal Executive, the States, and Municipalities to have information on tourism service providers at a national level, to better understand the market and establish communication with the companies when required.
The certification courses for the Distintivo H were given to the staff of the tourism companies
