Performance
Remarks:
1 Data on food waste from operations is from Thailand operations. This is in-line with the Food Loss and Waste Accounting and Reporting Standard, covering (1) Food Loss: Waste from production and processing, and (2) Food Waste: Waste from distribution centers and restaurants.
2 Percentage of plastic packaging for food products that is reusable, recyclable or compostable excludes multi-material plastics and alufoil.
3 Due to the absence of substitutable materials with equivalent quality and food safety standards, the Company was unable to achieve its 2025 target forplastic packaging for its Thailand operations.
Climate change and environmental crises are among the most significant challenges to societal well-being and the sustainability of businesses, particularly in the agro-industrial and food sectors, which rely on natural resources and ecosystems as the foundation of their operations.
The impacts of climate change, including intensified natural disasters, seasonal variability, and shifts in policies, regulations, and stakeholder expectations, directly affect costs, operational efficiency, raw material security, and business continuity.
Adaptation to and mitigation of climate change, alongside the implementation of circular economy principles in managing energy, waste, packaging, and supply chains, play a crucial role in enhancing businesses’ ability to grow sustainably over the long term while creating shared value for society.
