Apple Leisure Group is planning to ramp up its development push through its subsidiary, AMResorts.

The company has announced the addition of vice president of development Federico Moreno-Nickerson to its team.

Moreno-Nickerson will support the ALG Development Team, which the company said was “hyper-focused on delivering delivering unmatched hospitality expertise to hotel owners looking to invest in new assets or boost existing hotel property performance across Mexico, the Caribbean and Latin America.”

The company has also unveiled a new Web site, ALGdevelopment.com, aiming to inform owners and investors about the company’s offerings.

“Growing our existing development team is part of our strategic approach to give hotel owners the right partner to grow in the competitive all-inclusive sector and secure strong return on investments,” said Javier Coll, Executive Vice President and Chief Strategy Officer of Apple Leisure Group. “Adding an industry veteran like Federico Moreno-Nickerson to ALG’s development team supports our strategy to reach our goal of signing our 100th resort management deal by 2020.”

Moreno-Nickerson will focus on expanding the company’s footprint, particularly in Mexico, the English-speaking Caribbean and Latin America.
