Teamwork for people and planet: That's why we work together with WWF 🌎
Creating more impact together: With this goal in mind, we at Lidl are now working together as part of a strategic international partnership with WWF. Building on from existing local partnerships, for example in Switzerland and Austria, the new international partnership will involve 31 countries. The global ecological and social challenges of our time can only be managed if we work together. That is why it is time to join forces. 💪
As one of Europe's largest food retailer and one of the world's most experienced conservation organisations, the long-term cooperation with WWF will focus on working along Lidl’s value chain, thereby helping to address the global ecological challenges of our time, and ensuring that more households have access to more sustainable choices. 💚
Christoph Pohl, Chief Purchasing Officer at Lidl International, explains the reasons for the partnership: “In our role as one of the largest food retailers, we are aware of our responsibility and our influence. We take responsibility with the aim of doing business within planetary boundaries. For Lidl, sustainable management is not only a question of attitude, but also the basis for the future viability of our business model. With the support and expertise of WWF, we will now take our commitment to sustainability to the next level. We can only overcome major global challenges such as climate change and nature loss by working together. That's why we believe in strong partnerships to work together to provide more sustainable choices.”
This long-term partnership is another cornerstone of our commitment to driving sustainability as part of our international CSR strategy. Together, we are committed to responsible sourcing of raw materials, combating food waste and protecting the climate and biodiversity. Comprehensive, ambitious sustainability targets across the entire retail value chain form the core of the collaboration with the aim of providing customers with more sustainable choices. 🛒
