What Harus does
Harus (Harus Indústria da Hospitalidade) is a privately held Brazilian B2B supplier of hospitality solutions, headquartered in Franca, Brazil, and operating for over 30 years. The company serves hotels, resorts and accommodation establishments with a complete procurement ecosystem that spans personal-care amenities, sustainable dispensers, food and beverage items, cleaning and sanitization products, and bed/bath/equipment from partner brands. Own-brand lines include Alma Brasil (with 15+ sub-lines spanning Vegan, Spa, Argan, Amazonian fruits, Braille, Luxury and others), the "Amenities Harus" portfolio (Regina Segui, Carla Guerra, Momento Bem-Estar, Kantharus, Vida, BPL), and Harus by Carla Guerra for cleaning. Exclusive and premium distribution agreements with L'Occitane, Natura/Ekos, O Boticário, Costa Brazil, Jacques Janine and Vinotage allow Harus to deliver tiered "Amenities Especiais" to luxury and upscale hotels.
Commercially, the company runs an enterprise field-sales GTM targeting hotel chains (including Hilton, Marriott, JW Marriott, Accor/Ibis, Holiday Inn, Best Western, BlueTree, Bourbon, Fasano, Transamerica, Golden/Royal Tulip, AC Hotels, BeachPark, Costão do Santinho, Pestana, Vila Galé, Serhs) through quote-based multi-year procurement contracts accessed via the company website. The technology backbone is industrial rather than digital: biodegradable dispenser systems with Green Seal certification positioned to deliver 30–60% client cost savings, plastic-free eco-solid amenity formats, and accessible Braille packaging, with formulation and branding customization as a service offering. More recently, Harus has added Harus.IA, an AI-enabled guest-journey software layer, expanding beyond physical products into hotel technology, though technical depth of this offering is not publicly detailed. Geographic footprint is single-country (Brazil), with no disclosed international expansion, and revenue is not publicly disclosed.
