The Spanish skincare firm, Natura Bissé, currently has a presence in more than 450 spa hotels around the world—35% of which are located in Europe—and is set to close the year with a total revenue of 100 million euros. With its headquarters in Barcelona, 82% of the company’s sales are recorded abroad, with the Unites States and China being its primary markets, followed by Spain. Over the next 3 years, Europe will become the company’s strategic focus with the aim of doubling its multi-channel presence in this region.
For its part, Arch Amenities Group and its 3800 employees currently manage over 430 properties around the world. Private clubs, fitness centers, commercial and residential spaces and, of course, hotels place their trust in the Group’s extensive experience. Among the hotel groups in their portfolio of clients are big names like Waldorf Astoria, Four Seasons and The Ritz-Carlton, who are also partners of Natura Bissé across the world.
Natura Bissé has been part of Arch Amenities Group’s Preferred Vendor Program since early 2023, connecting the Natura Bissé product suite to a host of renowned U.S.-based spas and wellness spaces such as the Eden Roc Miami Beach Resort or the Waldorf Astoria Washington DC.
Today this partnership adopts a new character as a “non-exclusive strategic agreement” in Europe, at a time when the hospitality sector is seeing increased demand for elevated wellness experiences. Proof of this comes from data in a recent report from the Global Wellness Institute, which highlights consistent 12% annual growth in the wellbeing market since 2020 and forecasts a further 52% growth by 2027.
“This strategic agreement represents a step-change in the way both leading brands address the changing needs of the European market and reinforces our collective commitment to offer unlimited innovation, inspiration as a pillar of growth and bespoke agile solutions. That is why I’m convinced that our collaboration with Arch Amenities Group Europe will allow us to expand our presence in first-class spas and wellbeing centers,” says Verónica Fisas, CEO at Natura Bissé Group.
“Partnering with Natura Bissé in Europe to develop spas is an ideal fit for Arch as we grow our presence in Europe. As one of the most celebrated luxury skincare brands in the world, our strategic collaboration with Natura Bissé allows us to extend our proven expertise in developing and managing luxury wellness spaces to bring guests an unparalleled experience powered by great products, outstanding hospitality and elevated service,” says Barry Goldstein, CEO at Arch Amenities Group.

Ant International Partners with Google’s Universal Commerce Protocol to Expand AI Capabilities12.1.2026 02:15:00 CET | Press release
Ant International, a leading global payment, digitisation, and financial technology provider, is collaborating on the launch of Google’s Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP), a new open standard for agentic commerce that works across the entire shopping journey — from discovery and buying to post-purchase support. UCP establishes a common language for agents and systems to operate together across consumer surfaces, businesses, and payment providers to enable commerce. So instead of requiring unique connections for every individual agent, UCP enables all agents to interact easily. UCP is built to work across verticals and is compatible with existing industry protocols like Agent2Agent (A2A), Agent Payments Protocol (AP2), and Model Context Protocol (MCP). “For agentic commerce to scale, it’s critical for the industry to align on a common set of standards. We are proud to have Ant International endorse the Universal Commerce Protocol as the foundation for that future,” said Ashish Gupta, VP
