Woodbury Corporation Honored with 2015 Marriott Horizon Award

Award Recognizes Partners that Demonstrate Commitment to Development and Service

SALT LAKE CITY (December 29, 2015) – Woodbury Corporation, a full-service real estate development and management company, today announced that it has been honored by one of its business partners, Marriott International, with the 2015 Marriott Horizon Award.

The Horizon Award recognizes Marriott partners that own and operate fewer than 10 Marriott Select Service and Extended Stay brands and that demonstrate a commitment to running great hotels. In addition to making efforts to grow the development pipeline, winners of the Horizon Award also embody the spirit of Marriott International’s “Take Care of the Associate and the Associate will take care of the Guest” philosophy.

“Woodbury Corporation is a great partner for Marriott and we are thrilled that they have received this great award and recognition,” said Alvaro Fraile, senior director of franchise operations for Marriott International. “It is well deserved as all their hotels in our portfolio not only pass evaluations with flying colors, but performances also exceed every benchmark. We hope to continue growing with Woodbury and celebrating many more milestones in the years to come.”

Woodbury Corporation currently owns and manages seven Marriott properties in Nebraska, Idaho and along the Wasatch Front in Utah. Woodbury Corporation is also pursuing several additional opportunities that would bring even more Marriott hotels into their portfolio.

“Marriott works with many, many partners, so to be singled out and recognized for our efforts is truly an achievement of which we are very proud,” said Guy Randall Woodbury, vice president of hospitality at Woodbury Corporation. “With our hotels, we strive to cultivate a family-oriented culture where our guests are cared for and well served. As we continue and grow our hotel portfolio, making sure our guests have the best experience possible will remain our top priority.”
