It's analyzed the website of thirty-one and thirty two companies in hotels and food business respectively to extract their published values.

It's been found a match between the more desirable values in companies of the tourism sector with the values more frequently published in hotels. It hasn't been found a statistical significant difference of values depending on the sector, but some possible reasons are described. This research has some important practical contributions and opens new lines to continue researching in this field.
