ORGANIZER

Saaremaa Food Festival organizer is Saaremaa Tourism, it is founded at the initiative of private companies and is one of the umbrella organizations in this field in Saare County. The first step came in 1995, with the founding of an association of tourism and recreational companies in Saare County. It was succeeded in 1998 by the Saaremaa Tourism Foundation.

Saaremaa Tourism unites strong and experienced companies that support tourism in different fields (tour operators, accommodation providers, transport companies, specific tourist attractions). The foundation works with all of the other companies, local governments and organizations in the county.

Goals of Saaremaa Tourism Foundation:

The principle of the Foundation is that we market Saaremaa not only in Estonia but also abroad, because thus every company individually gets benefits.

Activities of Saaremaa Tourism Foundation:

The foundation members convene at least once a month to analyze developments in the tourism sector in the county, Estonia and the world, drawing conclusions and resolving critical issues. It is extremely important that all of the Foundation’s activities generate benefits for all companies connected to tourism and for Saare County as a whole. The image of the Foundation is shaped mainly though a consistently high quality of activity, achieved through competences, experiences, cooperative activity and thorough discussion. This is supported by the operating principle behind the Foundation – that no one should do someone else’s job for them, everyone has an opportunity to participate in and contribute to the Foundation’s activities both for their own aims and for common goals.

The Foundation’s membership is open to active, creative entrepreneurs with big plans who want to have a say and get involved in cooperative activities that support the above goals and activities.
