OUR ESG PHILOSOPHY & IMPACT STRATEGY
Operating responsibly is part of who we are. We foster a culture that values growth built around successful brands that creates value for our shareholders. We are committed to providing best-in-class employee benefits, giving back to our communities, investing in sustainable practices, promoting responsible consumption of our products, and operating with integrity.
We do this in part by holding steadfast to our commitments:
1. Serving as good stewards of our environment
o Improving water availability and resilience for our communities where we operate. We believe access to clean water is a human right and critical to helping build strong communities. It is our responsibility to be good stewards of the water we use while doing our part to help ensure the resiliency of water resources for future generations.
o Reducing greenhouse gas emissions. We are working to decrease our dependence on nonrenewable energy sources through energy conservation and renewable energy initiatives.
o Commitment to waste reduction and circular packaging. We seek to continually improve the ways we manage our waste to reduce the environmental impact of our waste generation, transportation, and disposal. For this reason, we are implementing plans to reduce our operational waste and significantly enhance our use of circular packaging across our portfolio.
2. Enhancing economic development and prosperity in the communities where we operate
o Our focus is on helping individuals and families thrive by positively impacting their lives and careers and economic prosperity through housing empowerment, financial literacy, job training, and career development. We believe that by creating these opportunities we contribute to sustainable economic development for all, ensuring that both communities and businesses can prosper together.
3. Promoting responsible beverage alcohol consumption
o Ensuring the responsible promotion and marketing of our products and empowering adults to make responsible choices with alcohol consumption. We believe the responsible consumption of beverage alcohol is important for the health, safety, and wellbeing of us all.
