Making

A positive difference

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 agriculture and thriving ecosystems for our key ingredients. We have already made significant progress to reduce our environmental impact and have science-based targets which have been validated by Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Our sustainability targets and approach are embedded into the way we do business.
