AHA, founded during the inaugural International Housekeepers’ Summit in 2016, has grown to encompass 18 member countries across diverse sectors, including hospitality and healthcare. Originating from founding members such as India’s I-Professional Housekeepers’ Association and counterparts from the UAE, Maldives, Doha, and Vietnam, AHA provides a global platform for professionals like Peiris to exchange knowledge and elevate industry standards.

As Peiris continues to uphold the highest standards in his field, Cinnamon Grand Colombo looks forward to seeing the heights he will continue to reach. His passion, hard work, and leadership serve as a beacon of excellence within the industry, promising even greater achievements in the future.
