Working to make a positive difference to the natural world
Working to make a positive difference to the natural world
As a responsible food manufacturer, we recognise both that we have a significant impact and a major opportunity to make a positive difference to the natural world. We are also reliant on a stable climate and thriving ecosystems for our ingredients. We have already made significant progress to reduce our environmental impact and are now embedding natural capital considerations into the way we do business.
