In 2016, we laid the foundation for a new, more integrated approach to sustainability, ensuring that we concentrate our efforts on the areas that really make a difference. This approach underpins our licence to brew and operate and is essential to the successful implementation of the Group’s new strategy, SAIL’22.
Thanks to partnerships with experts like WWF, Business for Social Responsibility (BSR) and the Carbon Trust, today we have a more detailed understanding of our impacts. The groundwork done with these organisations in 2016 will provide a solid basis for Carlsberg’s new long-term sustainability targets, which will be announced in 2017.
