De materiële duurzaamheidsonderwerpen voor milieu zijn nauw verbonden met onze strategische inspanningen die gericht zijn op het verduurzamen van onze activiteiten. Hierbij richten wij ons onder meer op het reduceren van onze broeikasgasemissies en de verduurzaming van transportmiddelen, maar ook op de vermindering van afval en het aanbieden van duurzamere alternatieven binnen ons assortiment.
Slowing climate change is a major focus in society today and for Sligro Food Group. This has resulted in initiatives at our company aimed at decarbonising our energy consumption and cutting greenhouse gas emissions within our sphere of direct influence. In assessing solutions that we can use, we aim to strike a sustainable balance between ecological impact and economic
growth and returns.
For Sligro Food Group, material use and the circular economy are material sustainability topics. We see opportunities to use more sustainable packaging, provided this does not compromise product shelf life or food safety. In addition, we focus on reducing food waste and on sustainable waste management and processing.
Biodiversity and ecosystems is a broad material topic. Within this theme, fish stock management, animal welfare, biodiversity (species diversity), and deforestation are material topics for us. The guiding principle of our policy across all these areas is to promote responsible practices and to help our customers make more sustainable choices by highlighting responsible alternatives.
