- Eligible members can connect five suppliers during setup.
What changed
AAHOA, Folio and Avendra International announced availability of the new AAHOA Marketplace. The service remains free for eligible members and combines a central catalog, shared shopping cart, order tracking and automated purchase coding. New users can connect up to five existing suppliers during setup while starting the onboarding process for negotiated purchasing benefits.
Why it matters
For independent hotel operators, consolidating these steps could make procurement software easier to adopt across one or several properties. The meaningful change is access to a simpler setup and ordering process, beyond the partnership announced earlier.
What remains unproven
The release's fast-setup and savings statements remain supplier claims. It does not quantify results across participating hotels or show that every existing supplier supports the same ordering and coding experience.
